Program areas at Washington State Hospital Association

Patient safety: Washington hospitals have a commitment to pursuing excellence for safe, high-quality, cost-effective health care for the people of Washington State. Through wsha's award-winning patient safety program, hospitals work together to share best practices and measure improvements in areas as diverse as maternal and infant health, diagnostic excellence, opioid stewardship, and workplace violence. This program helps to ensure the right care is delivered, at the right time, to every patient, every time. In the last several years, our patient safety work resulted in tens of thousands of prevented patient harms and hundreds of millions of dollars saved. The program is uniquely positioned to work with all wsha members, from multi-state systems to critical access hospitals. Each Hospital's challenges are a little different, so we work with them individually to support peer-to-peer sharing, data analysis and access to national experts.
Data analytics: the Association employs a team of analysts that work to build knowledge based on quality, utilization, and financial information. This knowledge supports the Association's patient safety and government affairs work and helps tackle the challenges that face health care providers and systems in Washington State.
Government affairs: the Association supports and participates in efforts to persuade Washington State and federal officials to support legislation and health policy benefiting Washington's hospitals, the State health care system, and the community.
Wsha received a federal grant to work with hospitals on opioid addiction.
