Why THA?
"Our association with Texas Hospital Association is more than just a membership – it’s a partnership and relationship. THA has been an important advocate for both HealthSouth and Texas’ inpatient rehabilitation provider community in advocating for improved access to quality rehabilitation hospital services...The benefits that our 15 Texas hospitals have received from THA definitely have outweighed the dues fees."
Laurie B. English, PT
President, Texas Region,
Texas HEALTHSOUTH Hospitals, Fort Worth
