Grounded in a longstanding commitment to address community health needs in San Diego, seven hospitals and healthcare systems came together under the auspices of the Hospital Association of San Diego and Imperial Counties (HASD&IC) to conduct a triennial Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) that identifies and prioritizes the most critical health-related needs of San Diego County residents. Participating hospitals will use the findings to guide their community programs and to meet IRS regulatory requirements that not for profit (tax exempt) hospitals conduct a health needs assessment in the community once every three years.
