State Hospital Associations

State Hospital Associations & AMRPA Membership

One area of significant engagement has been with state hospital associations that have medical rehabilitation providers as part of their membership.

AMRPA frequently presents to state hospital associations and offers policy analysis on federal regulatory proposals impacting IRF providers, such as prior authorization reform, the IRF Review Choice Demonstration, and the annual IRF payment and quality reporting program rule, among many others. AMRPA has also benefited from hearing firsthand about state-level policy issues of importance to the rehabilitation field.

To formalize our engagement and ongoing partnership, AMRPA has established a new membership classification for state hospital associations.

AMRPA State Hospital Association membership dues are paid on an annual basis. Please contact AMRPA at [email protected] for more information.
