Membership Dues & Late Fee Schedule

Membership dues follow a standard annual timeline:

  • Invoices are emailed each September to the hospital’s designated invoice contact.

  • Payment is due February 1 each year.

  • Once payment is received, the Close-Out Checklist of current year will be updated to reflect completion.

Please ensure your Contact Report is current so invoices reach the correct person.

If Payment Is Late

  • Access to that year’s data entry will be temporarily disabled until payment is received.

  • Late fees:

    • $300 starting February 2

    • $500 if payment is more than 30 days past due

Fees for Missing Required Deliverables

If any required item is missing or incomplete by its deadline, the center will be billed:

  • $300 at the time of the missed deadline

  • $500 if unpaid after 30 days

This applies to the following recurring deadlines:

  • February 1 – Membership Dues

  • February 1 – VON/CPQCC Contact Report

  • April 1 – Data Finalization Deliverables

  • June 1 – Data Finalization Deliverables

  • June 7 – CCS Report

The NICU Data Center will notify centers of any missing or incomplete items. Centers are responsible for communicating their planned submission timeline.
