DENVER, Colo., — July 27, 2026 — The Colorado Hospital Association (CHA), the trusted voice of Colorado’s hospital community, today announced a partnership with Ramp, the financial operations platform recently named #1 in fintech and #5 overall on Fast Company’s 2026 World’s Most Innovative Companies list. The agreement gives CHA’s member hospitals and health systems across Colorado access to the same financial operations platform CHA uses – a modern solution that replaces fragmented expense, card, bill pay, and procurement tools with a single, intelligent system.

CHA and Ramp are bringing together two complementary strengths: CHA’s support of Colorado’s hospitals and its track record of connecting members with high-impact resources, and Ramp’s all-in-one financial operations platform that combines corporate cards, expense management, bill pay, procurement, travel, and automated bookkeeping with built-in intelligence. For CHA members, the partnership opens access to the platform that has helped more than 70,000 organizations globally save more than $12 billion and 27 million hours.

Colorado’s hospitals and health systems operate in an environment of rising costs, tightening reimbursements, staffing pressures, and increasing regulatory complexity. Administrative overhead – from manual expense reporting to fragmented procurement processes – diverts time and resources from clinical operations and patient care. This partnership is designed to address that directly, giving hospital finance teams the tools to automate manual work and strengthen expense controls across their organizations.

“At CHA, we’ve seen firsthand the benefits Ramp brings for our organization and our finance team; we are confident that our member hospitals can benefit the same way,” said Angela Sigurdson, president, CHA Shared Services . “CHA is always looking for ways to support our members and their commitment to advancing patient care. Connecting them with a platform that reduces administrative burden and redirects resources toward patient care is exactly the kind of value we want to deliver.”

“Every hour a finance team spends chasing receipts is an hour not spent supporting patient care,” said Guy Cartwright, GM, Channel & Partnerships, Ramp. “CHA already runs on Ramp, and knows what that time back looks like. Now their member hospitals get the same platform, built to save real, valuable time and money.”
