Recent health care legislation has led to the formation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The act sets forth a new requirement effective for tax years beginning after March 23, 2012, whereby all 501(c)(3) hospitals must report a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) to the IRS every three years. Hospitals that fail to conduct a CHNA will face an annual penalty of $50,000 for every year of noncompliance. This webinar will provide a practical approach to conducting a CHNA and offer a perspective beyond the requirements for hospitals seeking to integrate the CHNA process into broader planning initiatives. Specifically, this webinar will address the following:

• Overview of IRS requirements of a CHNA and hospital implications
• The key components of a CHNA
• Best practices for conducting a CHNA in compliance with IRS guidelines
• Guidance on integrating the CHNA process into broader planning initiatives
