The California Hospital Association operates as a statewide trade association representing hospitals and health systems in California. Based in Sacramento, it ranks among the largest hospital associations in the United States, serving nearly 400 hospitals and health systems. Through collaboration with its members, CHA pursues advocacy and representation to advance the interests of hospitals, patients, and communities, and engages in legislative, regulatory, and legal efforts at both the state and federal levels. In October 2024, CHA announced a partnership with Hospital Council to develop programs that increase opportunities for licensed vocational nurses to become registered nurses, with involvement from community colleges and hospitals. This development demonstrates CHA's role in addressing workforce issues and workforce policy relevant to California hospitals.
