Championing Health Care in Indiana since 1921.

Advocacy

Hospitals need advocates now more than ever.

The American health care industry is in the midst of profound transformation, driven by legislative action. IHA represents Indiana hospitals at the state and federal levels to advance sound health policies and ensure that lawmakers understand how their decisions impact Hoosiers' health. We’ve worked hard to develop strong relationships with legislators—and we build on these relationships to advocate on behalf of our members. Together, IHA and Indiana hospitals unite to show lawmakers how we care as an industry for our communities and Hoosiers' health across the state.

How can you become an advocate?

Get to know your legislators. Find out who represents your area at the state and national levels. Visit them, email them or call them when there is legislation that could affect the way your hospital cares for its patients.

Your hospital’s local representatives in the Indiana General Assembly
Indiana’s representatives to the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate
Governor Eric Holcomb and his administration

Research the issues. When working with legislators, it is important to give priority to the most pressing issues impacting Hoosier health.

Tell your story. Nothing is as powerful as your experience. Tell lawmakers that hospitals are critical to the health of Indiana's economy. Tell them what health care professionals are doing every day to make Indiana a better place to live and work.
