The NYCHCC is made up of organizations from different sectors of the healthcare system.

Click on the sectors below to learn more.

Borough Coalitions
The NYCHCC includes five borough-based coalitions that help healthcare organizations that are geographically close to each other collaborate, coordinate, and share resources.

The planning and coordination that happens in Borough Coalitions allows local partners to work together more effectively during a response – from patient transfers, to connecting patients to needed community-based social services.

Borough Coalition member organizations are diverse and include long-term care, ambulatory care, and partnering community-based organizations.

Healthcare Networks
NYC’s healthcare networks deliver care to a significant portion of the NYC population and represent a majority of available healthcare delivery capacity in the city. Due to their prominent role and significant resources, it is essential that healthcare networks are ready to respond to public health emergencies and effectively collaborate with both public health and healthcare stakeholders to save lives. Participation in the NYCHCC provides networks with opportunities to coordinate preparedness efforts with other healthcare sectors and help lead healthcare systemwide readiness with local and state government.

Independent Hospital Systems
Independent Hospital Systems comprise a group of acute care facilities which are not affiliated to or reliant upon a healthcare network for the development of health care emergency management programs. Like the Healthcare Network Sub-Coalitions, these independent hospitals promote current trends in health care delivery and ensure emergency preparedness capacity-building in all sectors of each system, through their participation in the NYCHCC Leadership Council.
