The IHA Hospital Assistance Foundation predominantly funds Indiana-based hospitals and hospital systems, providing unrestricted or program-specific financial assistance to offset patient economic burden and support hospital operations. Grants are heavily weighted toward surgical/ specialty hospitals (orthopaedic and spine), regional acute-care providers, and statewide hospital association initiatives (e.g., the IHA Safe and Sound campaign); occasional smaller awards support community health programs and a scholarship gift to Indiana University. The foundation appears mission-driven to sustain hospital access and financial stability rather than funding broad social-service or arts programming.
