Three years after COVID-19 upended our health care system and way of life, Wisconsin hospitals are looking toward brighter days ahead. Still, our community hospitals and health systems continue to adjust to what are clearly longer-lasting, if not permanent, impacts of the pandemic.
 
Without fail, Wisconsin hospitals and health systems – 92% of which are non-profit – continue to provide a variety of services, filling social and public health gaps across our state.
 
As we strengthen our hospitals, we strengthen our communities.
 
Wisconsin’s nonprofit hospitals are doing an exceptional job managing and navigating through myriad challenges, but there are still lingering effects three years since the pandemic first struck.
 
Ongoing strains on resources, finances, and our workforce are posing unprecedented challenges that threaten access to care and the health of our communities.

Now is the time to support our local hospitals and communities.
