Purpose of Evaluation Improve programs and strategies Help other replicate programs Ensure effective use of resources Obtain additional funding Inform policy decisions Demonstrate impact 5

CHNA Reporting Requirements – Impact of Programs Tax-exempt hospitals must include in their current CHNA report an evaluation of the impact of programs or activities taken to address significant health needs identified in the immediately preceding CHNA.
