Action/Information Alerts
 |
From time to time, the Texas Hospital Association communicates urgent information to member hospitals and health systems via e-mail "action alerts" or "information alerts." In addition to alerting members about important issues or calls to action, the alerts provide valuable background information on specific issues of interest.
Selected alerts are available online, listed by subject matter and date.
(Note: Many are time-sensitive and are deleted when they are no longer relevant. If you need a copy of a particular Alert, contact THA's Corporate Communications Department at 512/465-1052.)
