A proposal on how bargaining for a new Community Health Agreement will be negotiated is currently being put to employers by their representatives, the VHIA. We expect to have an update shortly.

At least one employer, EACH, has declined to provide the VHIA with authority to act on their behalf and another, DPV, has not yet responded to either VAHPA or the VHIA. 

VAHPA has indicated to the VHIA that, should any employer determine not to proceed with the multi-employer Community Health Agreement, our Members are eager to pursue bargaining with them.
