WHCA Membership Information
Nursing Homes Membership:
The Wisconsin Health Care Association is a proactive trade association and a major player in Wisconsin's health care spectrum. WHCA is the state's largest and most representative nursing home association. Its members represent a true cross-section of the long-term care provider community – including proprietary, non-profit and government operated facilities.
As an association, WHCA is actively and professionally involved in virtually every area impacting nursing homes and their business colleagues. Currently, WHCA represents over 200 facilities with over 28,000 employees caring for some 27,000 residents. WHCA staff possess the experience and knowledge needed to understand the needs of skilled nursing facility administrative and clinical staff. Employees include two attorneys, a government relations specialist, a public relations professional and a reimbursement specialist. They can be depended upon to provide assistance and information on the complex issues of long-term care.
Regular nursing facility memberships in WHCA may be secured with the payment of annual dues, based on the number of licensed beds as of the beginning of a calendar year. Annual dues are billed quarterly and may be prorated, based on enrollment date. Dues may be paid on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis. Members are also expected to join WHCA's national organization, the American Health Care Association, as part of their membership agreement.
