Don't take our word for it, listen to what our current members have to say about AHVAP

 

Here are a few quotes that we recently have received from current members about the value of their AHVAP membership:

"By becoming part of AHVAP, I have gained access to a wealth of resources that are designed to support my professional growth and success.  These include: 

 

  1. Networking Opportunities: With my AHVAP membership, I have connected to a vast network of professionals, offering the chance to share ideas, collaborate on projects and build lasting professional relationships. This is made possible by the Networking Zone meetings and the annual conference that I have taken advantage of the past two years.  I truly feel that we are elevating the profession of Healthcare Value Analysis Professionals by coming together on a regular cadence and collaborating on real issues that affect our daily lives within Value Analysis. 
  2. Exclusive Content and Resources:  The value of membership far exceeds the investment/cost of membership.  I have been involved in other professional organizations throughout my 37 year nursing career, and there has not been one of these organizations that comes close to offering the same level of educational growth opportunities, many at no additional cost either!  From webinars, annual conferences and to industry reports and publications, I have access to tools and knowledge that keep me informed and well positioned in the Value Analysis realm. One prime example of this is the timely communication AHVAP has had with members regarding the recent devastation to the Baxter plant in North Cove, NC.  The information provided to members was immediately communicated and offered real solutions and support from some of the top leading organizations across the country, AHVAP being one of those. 
  3. Professional Development: This organization offers world-class training, certification (including micro-certifications), and continued educational opportunities to aid me in the development of new skills and lend me to a better position to advance my own career.  This also includes the AHVAP Position Statements that impact and guide the Clinical Value Analysis profession relevant to what is pertinent today and in the future. 
  4. Discounts and Benefits: I have been able to take advantage of many of the exclusive discounts on events, services and educational opportunities that are available to all AHVAP members. I would highly recommend any member stay close to the AHVAP website as it adds new content and valuable resources almost daily!

 

I truly feel that my membership and participation in AHVAP has not only enhanced my individual growth but also contributes to the collective success of our community of Value Analysis Professionals, collaboration with other key organizations across the country, like the CDC, FDA, AORN, etc., and our Industry Partners.  

 

Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of AHVAP and all that it offers!"

 

"I cannot imagine now being a part of AHVAP. The changes made in the last year are truly a game-changer, and where else can you spend $150 and get thousands of dollars in return on your investment!" 

"AHVAP is MY professional association and they are always a phone call or email away. I emailed for help urgently one day and the Executive Director called me personally within 30 minutes and helped me which tells me everything about this organization. It is a must-have for me in my career."

"Where else can you receive so many benefits for this value! AHVAP has been a blessing for me and my team as we build our new value analysis program. I really love the regional meetings and the member resource center. Both have been absolutely invaluable to me." 

"Being a member of AHVAP means that I am not alone in this fight. This role is difficult, but knowing that I am a member in a group of my peers with varying levels of expertise is really helpful to me. I have found the members and staff of AHVAP to be nothing less than world class in every aspect. This is the best membership that I have and I cannot imagine not being a member." 

"The level of customer service that you experience from AHVAP is unparalleled. It's basically Ritz Carlton level, and that says it all. I love that the AHVAP family cares so much about each of its members. I will be a member for life!" 

"I belong to several professional health care organizations as a health care consultant and respiratory therapist.  The changes that have been made over the past few months with the AHVAP website and member benefits are absolutely phenomenal.  Anyone considering whether to join AHVAP need only to explore the website to see the numerous benefits provided to members."
