Friday Sweeps

 

Every Friday, the NIHCArewards system will do an automatic sweep of any banking information that was updated, changed or made valid; the system will acknowledge those changes and post an ACH for those invalid accounts - expect invalid banking to be paid out in 1-3 business days after the Friday sweep.

Reimbursement History 

Member reimbursement history from 2016 might not be posted for each member and may not be the most accurate.  It will be important for you, the facility, to log back into Vanco to check past 2016 reimbursement history on a member in question. 
Amount Credited Date:  IF you are reading a specific member's Reimbursement Detail, the "Amount Credited Date" is the date that our processor posts the ACH.  This means the money will be reimbursed within 1-3 business days after the "Amount Credited Date", assuming the member's banking information is correct and valid.   
Reminder:  Deadline to Submit your March member usage (and any re-submits) is by April 8th at midnight. 
Clubs are welcome to call   NIHCA with any questions.

Collect Banking Information

It's April already; it's time to finalize those lists and get any last, remaining member's banking information entered into NIHCArewards.  PLEASE, make this a priority for April.  As your front desk staff to make some member calls, or send out another member email.  Banking information needs to be collected on each member, if you want the money to go directly back to member.
