The Finger Lakes Health Systems Agency (FLHSA)
is the leader in community based health planning and works to promote the health of the region's population by:
- providing a "community table" where all stakeholders meet;
- conducting outreach to community groups;
- retaining extensive data on the region's health and health care.
The FLHSA traces its roots back to the inception of health care planning in the early 1960s and has received national recognition
from the American Health Planning Association and the American Public Health Association. Through its many projects,
the organization continues to strive to ensure the region's population receives the right care, at the right place, at the right time.
