The Georgia Hospital Association
is a nonprofit trade
association made up of member health systems, hospitals
and individuals in administrative and decision-making positions
within those institutions. Founded in 1929, GHA serves
174 hospitals in Georgia. Its purpose is to promote the
health and welfare of the public through the development
of better hospital care for all of Georgia's citizens.
GHA members are committed to improving institutional health
care services and, in turn, patient care. The association
provides information and education on issues ranging from
access to health care and clinical care updates, to effective
hospital management and compliance with high-level accreditation
standards. From its headquarters near Atlanta, GHA represents
its members to Congress and the General Assembly and before
federal and state regulatory agencies. GHA is an allied
member of the American Hospital Association.
