MARHC MEMBERSHIP FEE CALCULATION

MARHC membership is calculated using two factors:

  • A base membership fee of $300, plus

  • A fee of $75 for each full-time clinician or provider if the clinic has more than two.

The base membership rate includes two clinicians or providers. For the purpose of membership, MARHC regards a clinician or provider as a: Physician, Physician Assistant, Nurse Practitioner, Certified Nurse Midwife
or Licensed Clinical Social Worker. If you are a large organization that has more than 50 full-time RHC clinicians cumulatively, then you only pay a flat fee of $4,000.


Please keep in mind that this structure is based on the number of employees your organization has as a whole. If you are a provider-based clinic, your parent company will need to complete this membership and submit information based upon the clinicians employed at all of their RHC locations. All clinics under that parent company are then considered members. If you are an independent clinic with multiple sites, you will need to base your membership dues off of the clinicians employed at all RHC locations. 


To decide how many full-time clinicians you have, consider the number of hours they work at all sites. For example, if you have a clinician who is a full-time employee but divides their time equally between five clinics,
that would be one full-time clinician.

Contributions or gifts to MARHC are not tax deductible as charitable contributions for income tax purposes. However, they may be tax
deductible as ordinary and necessary business expenses to restrictions imposed as a result of association lobby activities. MARHC estimates the non-deductible portion of your dues-the portion allocated for lobbying-is 25%.
