The Iowa Hospital Association (IHA) is a professional association that represents Iowa hospitals and supports them in pursuing their missions and goals. Based in Des Moines, Iowa, the organization operates within the hospitals and health care sector and serves as a key contributor to health policy and advocacy in the state. It functions as a resource for information and education to help member hospitals navigate industry developments and regulatory changes. The association employs a mid-sized team dedicated to coordinating statewide health care initiatives and professional development. IHA's primary audience comprises Iowa hospitals and health systems, which rely on the association to help address policy, regulatory, and workforce challenges and to access educational resources. Through advocacy, information sharing, and collaboration, the organization supports hospitals in aligning with state priorities and improving health care delivery across Iowa. In May 2026, IHA hosted the second annual Health Sciences Career Day in collaboration with the Iowa Department of Education and hospitals across the state.
