Data are n (%). Data were gathered from community health needs assessments (CHNAs) and regional health partnerships (RHPs) of participating hospitals and hospital systems in Texas; the reports were published between 2011 and 2015.
↵* At the time of this review, 2 plans were in progress; therefore these data are from among only 36 CHNAs.
