Hospital Performance Improvement The Alaska State Hospital & Nursing Home Association (ASHNHA, or Hospital Association), in partnership with the Alaska Office of Rural Health Policy (ORHP), took steps in 2003 to form a network of its smallest, most rural hospitals. Hospital leaders met a total of four times in 2003 and began to identify an organizational structure and cooperative approach that all of members could support.
