HOSPAC

One Voice for Hospitals

What is HOSPAC?

HOSPAC is a membership political action committee, organized and supported by persons who support the improvement of healthcare in West Virginia, and who support hospitals and their role in improving health care. HOSPAC is a voluntary, non-profit, non-partisan organization whose purpose is to provide financial support to candidates for election in West Virginia, and to support issues and measures that improve healthcare in West Virginia.

Contributions are voluntary and have no impact on job status, performance review, compensation or employment. Contributions to HOSPAC are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal or state income tax purposes.

Your contribution to HOSPAC is shared between the state and federal levels. HOSPAC partners with the American Hospital Association Federal PAC (AHAPAC) through an annual joint fundraiser. HOSPAC transfers 50 percent of Chairman’s Circle ($500 contributions) and above to AHAPAC to support West Virginia candidates at the federal level unless the contributor designates otherwise.
