CAREER OPPORTUNITIES – MAMSS regularly posts jobs in credentialing, enrollment and other similar fields for our members’ benefit throughout the Commonwealth and surrounding areas.

CEUs – Earn credits towards your NAMSS certification through participation in Membership Meetings, Education Conferences and/or other opportunities that MAMSS offers throughout the year. You should be able to earn enough credits to maintain your certification without leaving the Commonwealth! Many are free for members too!

CURRENT UPDATES – Be the first to hear about new state or national regulations that may impact credentialing, enrollment or similar fields through our active email distribution list and updated website. Hear directly from the Board of Registration in Medicine, who addresses our membership at least yearly.

EDUCATION – Participate in conferences and events to educate yourself on all the happenings related to our profession, regulatory requirements and trends in the industry. We aim to attract local and national speakers on pertinent topics as well as engaging keynote speakers for professional and personal development.

MENTORSHIP – Participate in the Mentorship Program with a mentor to help enhance your professional development; or, conversely, apply to mentor another MAMSS member to foster a commitment to professional development and realize shared goals. Being a mentor or mentee are both rewarding and professionally fulfilling!

NETWORKING – It's not just about collecting contacts, it's about fostering meaningful relationships that can benefit both you and those in your network.  You will have many opportunities to gather with colleagues professionally and socially and also meet colleagues in other professions that directly impact ours, like licensing and legal fields.

RECOGNITION – We recognize the importance of the medical staff professional’s role as the gatekeeper to patient safety and we recognize the role you play and the complexity involved. Let’s recognize one another as the industry continues to catch up to the importance of this work.

RELATIONSHIP BUILDING – Develop a sense of community with other like-minded individuals who are all committed to patient safety through the thorough and considered credentialing of our providers. Use our online message board to gather benchmarking or feedback on questions or ideas you are considering.
