Community Health Needs Assessment

Print Page

In 2010, President Obama signed into law the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act that requires charitable hospitals to conduct a community health needs assessment and adopt strategies to meet community health needs identified through the assessment. 

Trinity Hospital Twin City completed a 2013 Community Health Needs Assessment to understand the health issues in the hospital’s service area. In 2016 and again in 2019, the hospital partnered with the Healthy Tusc Task Force to conduct new Community Health Needs Assessments. The details and results of all needs assessments are listed in the links at the bottom of this page.

As a result of the needs assessments, hospital leaders and key staff reviewed the prioritized issues and developed three-year Community Benefit Implementation Plans based on guidance from the Catholic Health Association of the United States. In the links at the bottom of this page, the implementation plans for 2016 and 2019 can be found.
