How Dues are Calculated:
Arizona LeadingAge has changed how member dues are calculated. Dues will now be calculated by the number of beds/units. HUD/Affordable Housing Communities will pay a flat fee based upon the number of units as described below.
For 2024, not-for-profit provider member dues are calculated based on the following bed/units count:
- Skilled Nursing Facility ~ $48 per bed.
- Assisted Living Communities ~ $25 per unit
- Independent Living Communities ~ $12 per unit
- HUD/Affordable Housing Communities pay a flat fee based upon the number of units at the Community as follows:
- < 50 units = $500
- >50 units = $750
For 2024, the Board of Directors has set a maximum dues amount for not-for-profit provider members at $11,750, and a minimum dues amount of $250.
