Membership

Members are the lifeblood of HFMA.  Nearly 32,000 members provide the focus for the broad range of services and benefits that HFMA delivers.   Members also provide the ideas and effort to help create and ultimately to administer these activities.  With a broad range of professional titles and settings, from accountant to senior financial manager, from hospitals and nursing homes to consulting firms and insurance companies, members express a wide variety of viewpoints on key healthcare issues facing the industry, thereby guiding HFMA in representing the profession.

The Central New York Chapter strives to bring perspective and clarity to this industry's complex issues. Through our programs, publications and partnerships we work to enhance capabilities that strengthen not only individual careers, but the organizations from which our members come.

Membership Classifications

The four basic categories of HFMA membership as defined in HFMA's bylaws are: Regular Member, Student Member, Advanced Member, and Retired Member. The first two of these categories are available to members when first joining HFMA.  A member who is approved as a Faculty Member, Retired Member, National Life Member or Chapter Life Member retains their classification (Regular, Advanced) and all the rights and privileges of that status.
