Independent Healthcare Association
Revision as of 10:44, 25 June 2010 by Steven Harkins (talk | contribs)
The Independent Healthcare Association (IHA) was a 'powerful trade body for independent healthcare providers'. The IHA boasted of having 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.[2] In January 2004, it merged with English Care to form the English Community Care Association, providing representation only for members involved in longer term residential health and social care.
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.[3]
