Catholic Health World is published monthly. It is distributed as a benefit of CHA membership to leaders in Catholic hospitals, long-term care facilities and health systems. Catholic Health World's audience includes sponsors, executives, chief financial officers, administrators, trustees, selected department managers and policymakers.
