Important New Payment Policy

Dear Members,

Please be advised that effective June 1, 2011 the Metro NY Chapter of HFMA has instituted a change in our payment policy as follows:

All attendees must be paid in full PRIOR to an event. If payment is NOT received by the day of the event, the attendee will not be admitted unless payment is made that day with our registration staff located at the event venue.

Accepted forms of payment are: VISA, MASTERCARD, CHECK (Personal or Corporate). Checks in the mail or copies of checks will not be accepted as proof of payment and payment will need to be made in order to attend the event

Reminder: All registrations are a guarantee of payment. If you fail to show for the event payment is required.

We regret any inconvenience that this policy might cause you, but we believe that it is in the best interests of our Chapter and our members to implement this policy in order to control our costs and maintain our low registration fees. If you have any questions regarding this policy, or if a special arrangement needs to be made requiring payment please contact me at (516) 240-8147 or .

Sincerely,

John I. Coster

Chapter President

2011-2012
