Trinity’s strategy development is known as the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP). Trinity has been involved in the assessment of its community’s health priorities for the past 18 years through its efforts in the establishment of a CHNA for the Quad Cities area beginning in 2002. In 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was enacted by Congress with the goal of improving access to healthcare services for Americans. As part of the Affordable Care Act, non-profit hospitals are required to submit a Community Health Needs Assessment and Improvement Plan every three years. In addition to our commitment to serving the needs of the community, Trinity’s CHIP also fulfills these regulatory requirements. In late 2014, UnityPoint Health - Trinity partnered with the Quad City Health Initiative and other community partners to begin the process of collecting data and planning the operationalization of the Community Health Improvement Plan for 2019-2021.
