Am I eligible to join?

Credit Unions are member-owned cooperatives. Unlike a for-profit bank, in which profits go back to a select group of stockholders, credit unions are organized to return all the profits to member-owners in the form of lower loan rates, higher savings rates, and lower fees. As member of Broward HealthCare Federal Credit Union (BHCFCU), you are actually an owner, you have a voice in everything we do.

Membership Eligibility

• Employees of the Broward Health Hospitals, Medical Centers, All Broward Health District Facilities
• Organizations, affiliates and vendors of Broward Health Hospital District
• Broward County employers, employees, independent contractors or self employed persons who work in the healthcare industry
• Employees of the The Sun Sentinel, Tribune Publishing
• Employees and members of the Printing Association of Florida
• Other employee groups including Forum Publishing, Media Printing, Mac Papers, and Skyemed Pharmacy
• Immediate family or household members

Once you join the Credit Union you are always a member, even if you leave your job, retire, or move out of the area. All of the benefits of membership are available to you as long as you maintain the required minimum balance in your Share (Savings) account.
