Get the facts from CHA President and CEO Sr. Mary Haddad, RSM, and American Hospital Association President and CEO Richard J. Pollack on why positive margins are necessary for #nonprofit hospitals to maintain basic services and advance care for patients and communities: https://lnkd.in/guce88cG #CommunityBenefit
A recent op-ed on nonprofit hospitals recycles flawed arguments that threaten access to care. The piece ignores what would actually happen if hospitals lost their tax-exempt status. Hospitals would close; communities would crumble; and patients would receive less care. It is critical for hospitals to be financially stable to maintain and expand 24/7 care for all patients and communities, develop new and advanced treatments for diseases, and weather storms, cyberattacks and public health crises. Get the facts by reading this article. https://lnkd.in/gaFdi43K Also, check out this report from EY below on how the benefit tax-exempt hospitals provide to their communities is estimated to be nine times greater than the value of the forgone tax revenue.
