A founding member of the Coalition, the Catholic Health Association is the nation's largest group of not-for-profit health care sponsors, systems, and facilities.  CHA works with partners in the ministry and other concerned health providers to advance education, initiatives and legislation that improves care to dying persons.

CHA represents Catholic health facilities that provide compassionate, high-quality care to patients and residents—and their families and loved ones—addressing the needs of their bodies, minds, and spirits. Catholic health facilities and systems reach outside their walls into the communities they serve to foster health and well-being.
