Community Health Implementation

The information learned through the Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) shapes the Community Health Implementation Plans (CHIP), which seek to address the community needs identified through this process.

Community Health Improvements

As a result of Community Health Implementation Plans, CMC provides community-based health education, prevention and supportive programs, including:

  • Community health education, fitness classes and support groups
  • Fertility health education services
  • Healthcare for individuals experiencing homelessness
  • Health screenings at little or no cost to community members, including breast, cervical and skin cancer screenings
  • Medication assistance program
  • Outreach and enrollment assistance for Medicaid and other government sponsored programs
  • Parish nurse programs
  • Patient transportation service
  • Wellness programs

Community Health Needs Assessment

CMC has a long-standing commitment to caring for our community. To evaluate the community’s most pressing health needs, we have worked in collaboration with Elliot Health System and the City of Manchester Health Department to conduct a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA). All not-for-profit hospitals are required by the Affordable Care Act to conduct this assessment every three years.

The assessment and formal report is in alignment with the federal IRS community benefit reporting requirements that affect all State-licensed 501(C) (3) hospitals.
