Economic Impact Studay
Latest Release: August 2006
The hospitals and hospital systems that are members of the Greater Dayton Area Hospital Association (GDAHA) have
a tremendous impact on the economy of the Dayton area. They are a vital part of the Dayton Region economy as
well as its healthcare delivery system. Their employment and business interactions create economic benefits
for many households and businesses throughout Dayton and the surrounding communities.
The purpose of this study is to identify the economic impacts that the GDAHA non-profit and government affiliated
hospitals have on the economy of the region. This report measures those economic benefits by estimating the
economic impact of GDAHA-member hospitals and their affiliated facilities on the region’s employment, household
earnings, and business sales. The economic impact estimates use direct local spending by GDAHA members to determine
their indirect effects on other industries and households in the region.
