HaysMed to Launch 2018 Community Health Needs Assessment Update

By Gayla Wichman - In HaysMed News, The Center News - February 5, 2018

Hays, Kansas (February 5, 2018) –                  

For Immediate Release: Feb 5, 2018

Over the next three months, HaysMed, part of The University of Kansas Health System will be working with other community providers to update the 2015 Ellis County KS Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA).  ACA legislation requires all tax-exempt hospitals to submit a CHNA to the IRS every three years, regardless of hospital affiliation. Each hospital, even those that serve overlapping populations, must submit a separate CHNA. Note: ACA legislation requires all tax-exempt hospitals to submit a CHNA to the IRS every three years, regardless of hospital affiliation. Each hospital, even those that serve overlapping populations, must submit a separate CHNA.><Note: ACA legislation requires all tax-exempt hospitals to submit a CHNA to the IRS every three years, regardless of hospital affiliation.

VVV Consultants LLC, an independent research firm from Olathe, Kansas has been retained again to conduct this countywide research.  The goal of this assessment update is to understand progress in addressing community health needs cited in the 2015 CHNA report and to collect up-to-date community health perceptions.   To accomplish this work, a short online survey has been developed.

All community residents are encouraged to complete the 2018 CHNA Wave #3 online survey by Friday, February 23, 2018.  Note: you can also find CHNA 2018 feedback link on HaysMed website & Facebook page.

“This work is vital to determine the health direction for our county,” commented Shae Veach, Vice President of Regional Operations and Marketing at HaysMed.
