Community Benefit

AHA response to Modern Healthcare story "Flaws in reporting create knowledge vacuum regarding community benefits"
The AHA, assisted by Ernst & Young LLP, has previously collected Schedule H tax filings to assist in advocacy efforts and demonstrate the community benefit tax-exempt hospitals provide to their communities.
In 2015 alone, the most recent year for which data is available, those tax-exempt hospitals participating in the 340B drug savings program provided $51.7B in total benefits to their communities.
