Case Study #3
How we helped a hospital that had failed to complete a CHNA and was being fined $100,000.
The Challenge
A Hospital in northern California contacted HealthTech to complete a Community Health Needs Assessment after the Hospital had had failed to complete a CHNA as required under §501(c)(3) and was being fined $100,000.
The Approach
– We worked aggressively to complete the CHNA in record time, taking only six weeks rather than the usual 3- 4 months.
– A multi-faceted approach was used to gather information about the health needs of the community and to develop priorities for health improvement.
– The process focused on gathering and analyzing secondary data as well as obtaining input from key stakeholders and the community to identify and define significant health needs, issues, and concerns.
– A total of fourteen individual interviews were conducted. A provider survey distributed, and a community survey developed with 233 respondents.
– This data collection process led a setting a priority schedule aloe with an implementation plan.
The Results
Healthtech routinely receives stellar feedback on its highly interactive and collaborative CHNA process due to:
– Alignment with the facility’s strategic plan and population health strategies.
– Diligent research to find the most current secondary data
– Emphasis on social determinants of health and health disparities
– Highly interactive approach
