Safety net hospitals are America’s best kept secret. It is well-proven that they are unmatched in their mission to ensure health care access for all. But the scope and breadth of their work remains understated. The fact is, safety net hospitals provide an array of critical services to the communities they serve—and in many cases, they are the only trauma centers in town. They do more with less, and give the most to the least. NAPH members are first-rate health systems on the leading edge of health care innovation. These are their stories.
