Catholic Healthcare West (CHW) is a California-based not-for-profit public benefit corporation that operates hospitals in California, Arizona, and Nevada.[2] As such, it is exempt from federal and state income taxes. CHW is the eighth largest hospital system in the nation and the largest not-for-profit hospital provider in California.[3] In 2012 the company's name changed to Dignity Health to better reflect their ministry and the ending of their affiliation with the Catholic Church.
