MD-MADS Membership
Membership in MD-MADS is available in two categories: providers of adult day services centers, and associate member businesses who support medical adult day centers. Membership runs from July 1 through June 30 each year.
Annual membership fees for centers are based on the licensed capacity of the medical adult day center. Organizations with more than one center in Maryland must enroll all centers into membership. New members will be assessed a one time initiation fee in additional to annual dues (dependent on licensed capacity).
Associate memberships are available for $500 for non-provider businesses who support ADMCs.
