Who We Are
Since 1953, Associated Healthcare Credit Union (AHCU) has been committed to making a positive difference in the financial lives of healthcare employees, professionals, and their families. What sets us apart from other financial institutions is that we truly understand healthcare employees and the sacrifices you have made to get where you are.
AHCU is a full-service credit union offering financial wellness and education, savings, checking, investments, deposit accounts, all loan types, and electronic services to help accommodate those busy schedules. We also offer car buying and retirement services.
Associated Healthcare Credit Union
A credit union offers economical financial services to a group of people who share a common bond. What is AHCU's common bond? Healthcare professionals. And our roots go deep! We were founded by a group of volunteer hospital employees at Miller Hospital, who wanted to provide financial services to their coworkers in a safe and equitable manner. In February of 1953, we were chartered as Miller Employees Credit Union. Our membership expanded in 1974 to include Children’s Hospital, once again prompting a name change to United and Children’s Hospitals Employees Credit Union. Finally in 1988, we changed our name to Associated Healthcare Credit Union, a name that could embrace future growth.
In November of 2011, Blue Stone Federal Credit Union, serving the employees of Blue Cross Blue Shield, joined Associated Healthcare Credit Union. A few years later in January of 2013, HealthEast Employees Credit Union, serving the employees and family of HealthEast, also joined our family.
