The Independent Healthcare Association (IHA) is a 'powerful trade body for independent healthcare providers'. The IHA has 1,500 member organisations accounting for a quarter of independent health and social care provision. [1] The IHA director was Tim Evans between 1993 and 2002.


Controversy

In 2003 the General Healthcare Group (GHG) became the second of the big four private healthcare providers to leave the Independent Healthcare Association following the departure of Nuffield Hospitals.[2]
