CHIC is a membership-based organization, covering multiple care settings in the region it serves. Its membership includes hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities, tribal health facilities, higher education facilities and public health departments. A 14-member Board directs the organization and represents all constituents within its membership.

Since 1999, CHIC has been self-sustaining through its membership structure and its ability to generate fees through services. Support is based on the member organization's size and services used. Hospitals and health systems pay fees based on number of beds and employed medical provider. Clinics and Higher Education Facilities provide support based on a fixed fee plus a charge per medical provider. Long Term Care and Tribal Health entities pay fixed participation fees. There is no charge for the Public Health Departments. Members use part of their cost savings received from CHIC projects to pay for their membership with the organization.
