Since its creation in 1922, MHA has
grown from 50 to more than
140 member hospitals. As a not-for-profit

MHA represents every acute care
hospital in the state, as well as
most of the federal and state

the continuum of health care services, MHA also has expanded
its services to members throughout
its history. In addition to representation
