AHA provide this justification for the fee:

"This fee helps to defray the administrative cost of processing applications, making more funds available for research awards." (http://my.americanheart.org/professional/Research/FundingOpportunities/SupportingInformation/MembershipApplication-Fee_UCM_431672_Article.jsp)

However, AHA consistently limits indirect cost recovery on its awards (i.e. AHA reduces the ability for grantees to defray administrative costs).

AHA may argue that many professional associations offer funding only to members.  But AHA is a public charity.  I'll bet a little exposé in a major newspaper about how research is being penalized before being supported by public donations might have an effect.

I contacted AHA and inquired about the possibility of an institutional membership to which they responded with a definitive "No."

Has anyone pushed back on AHA?

Subject: [RESADM-L] AHA Membership/Application Fee

Effective with the winter 2012 deadlines, each applicant is required to either be an American Heart Association Professional Member or to pay $100 per application submission. I would like to know how institutions are handling this requirement?  Is the department responsible for the cost of this membership/application fee or is the applicant?
