NAMAS was founded by Shannon DeConda in 2007 as a subsidiary of DoctorsManagement. While working as a coding and auditing consultant for DoctorsManagement, Shannon saw many auditors struggling unnecessarily with how to tackle the challenges they faced when it came to proper auditing and compliance. Recognizing that auditors could benefit from more reliable tools and training, Shannon was determined to create an auditing training and certification program.Shannon worked passionately to ensure that auditors had access to reliable educational programs as well as the opportunity to gain recognition. She developed a program that provides an auditing credential along with a comprehensive curriculum and certification exam, and then set out around the country to train and certify auditors. In 2010, NAMAS and the AAPC joined forces. The AAPC took ownership of the CPMA® credential and exam, while NAMAS continues to train auditors as the only AAPC-approved trainer for the CPMA® exam. Today, the CPMA® credential continues to gain national recognition, and the need for certified auditors in the healthcare community continues to rise. NAMAS is expanding its offerings with live CPMA® training events across the country as well as numerous online trainings that provide CPMA® CEUs. |
