Our Approach to the Community Health Needs Assessment
Every three years, Inspira participates in a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) as required by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). This report contains data from the community and a range of professionals with public health expertise, and it reflects issues affecting our region, including but not limited to:
- COVID-19
- Mental and Behavioral Health
- Accessibility, Availability and Affordability of Care
- Accessibility to Children's Health Care
- Food and Diet
To improve health outcomes and overall wellbeing, Inspira implements strategies consistent with the CHNA results to address the community’s perceived health needs.
