1. Log in to your NCIHC member account and click on the "My Profile" button. (see directions above)
2. Click on the "Renew Now" button and follow the prompts to enter/update your payment information. You can select or deselect Auto-Renewal by clicking on the box.

Is auto-renewal available for my membership payment?

Members have the option to renew their accounts themselves or to keep a credit card on file so that their membership fee is automatically billed each year. Credit card information is stored in the payment processor, not the membership software. Once a member enrolls in auto-renew payments, they will be charged membership dues automatically, on their next expiration date.

For a member to update a credit card, the member must be in their renewal period and access the membership renewal process by way of the invoice, the membership profile account, or the membership form. Once in the form, members can opt in or out of auto-renewal and update the information on file with the payment processor.

Important Note: Members with auto-renewal will receive 3 separate renewal reminders before their expiration date (30, 14, and 7-day expiration notice). On your expiration date, payment will be made automatically and posted to your renewal invoice.

If a member has opted-in to auto-renew payments and wants to opt out, the member can take the renewal form through the NCIHC website and uncheck auto-renew, but the member must be in their renewal period to access the renewal form.

Click here for a guide to help you navigate the form during your renewal process.

Why am I not receiving emails from NCIHC?

All NCIHC communications are sent to the email listed in your member profile. Verify the email listed in your account by logging in to your profile and reviewing what is listed.

If the email listed is incorrect, then click on the Edit Profile button, scroll down to update the email address and click Save.

Where can I find the receipt for my payment?

All payments made to NCIHC on this website will be followed up with a confirmation email. This email will act as your receipt and will contain your payment information. If you have not received your payment confirmation email, check your spam or junk mail folder. If you are unable to find the email, contact the NCIHC Admin at [email protected] for further assistance.

Is there a daily digest option for receiving messages?

No, there is no option with the current listserv to receive all of the listserv messages in a daily digest format at this time.  This option may be added at a future time, however.

How can I manage the number of messages from the listserv?

If you are using Microsoft Outlook, follow these easy steps:
1. Click on Tools, then Rules & Alerts
2. Click on New Rule
3. Create a rule that moves e-mails sent to [email protected] into a folder of your choice.  You may wish to create a new folder for this purpose.

If you are using Gmail, follow these steps:
1. Click Mail Settings
2. In the tabs on the top of the page that give your account details, choose the tab labeled “Filters”
3. Click on “Create a new Filter”
4. Within the area named “Subject”, type the following (including brackets): [NCIHC Listserv]
5. Click “Create Filter with this search” at the bottom of the small window.
6. Create a rule that moves NCIHC Members-Only listserv messages into a label of your choice. You may wish to create a new label for this purpose. 

Note: If you prefer listserv e-mails to go directly to a Label of your choice within your Gmail inbox instead of appearing in your main inbox, choose the following actions while in step #6 above: “Skip the Inbox (Archive)” and “Apply Label”.

If you are using Yahoo! Mail, follow these easy steps:
1. Click on Options, then Filters
2. Click on Add
3. Set up the new rule to filter the messages as you prefer.

Are the messages archived for me to access later?

Presently, the listserv messages are not archived for access on the website. If there is a message that you lost from your own email archives, your best option is to send a message to the listserv to ask for the information.  More than likely, another listserv member will have the information you are requesting.

I have added myself to the listserv but I am still not receiving messages. Now what?

Have you checked with your IT department to see if a firewall setting is preventing you from receiving the messages sent from the listserv? Some of our members' e-mails have had the listserv messages mistaken as Spam. Please check with your IT department and let them know that you are expecting messages from [email protected] with "ncihc-members:" in the subject line.

As an organizational member, how do I add additional subscribers?

Simply send a request to [email protected] with the email addresses for up to five additional subscribers beyond the primary subscriber for your organization. Once your active organizational membership status is confirmed, the subscribers will be added.

How do I access the free webinars?
