NHMA typically advocates for policies that address health equity, access to care, diversity in the healthcare workforce, public health funding, Medicaid and Medicare access, health insurance coverage, culturally competent care, and measures to reduce health disparities affecting Hispanic and underserved communities.
NHMA is primarily funded through membership dues, corporate sponsorships, foundation grants, conference revenues, and charitable contributions.
