Greater New York Hospital Association
Greater New York Hospital Association (GNYHA), founded in 1904, is a one-of-a-kind trade association comprising nearly 300 hospitals and continuing care facilities, both voluntary and public, in the metropolitan New York area and throughout the State, as well as New Jersey, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. Over the years, with the help of our members, we have redefined what a trade association is and should be, and have created a dynamic center for discussion and collective advocacy.

GNYHA Launches New “App”

In a first for hospital trade associations, GNYHA just launched a new iPad “app,” which is now available in the Apple iPad App Store.

GNYHA’s app shares the latest GNYHA news and publications, reconfigured for easy access on the iPad device. The free app is a first step in GNYHA’s ongoing commitment to facilitate fast, easy digital communication with its membership.
