Advocating for Your Hospital

Essential hospital leaders joined their peers in Washington, D.C., Feb. 24–25, for the Federal Advocacy Assembly to amplify the voice of essential hospitals.

Why Now?

This signature event put the priorities of essential hospitals front and center as Congress set its annual agenda for the start of the 119th Congress.

Attendees helped us send a clear message to members of Congress: Essential hospitals need their support now.
