The Importance of the NAMSS Code of Professional Conduct and Rules of Ethics
continued from page 29

All NAMSS members can submit complaints
of alleged violations, questions, or concerns
to the NEC through the NAMSS Executive
Office. Complaints of alleged violations
must be submitted on the appropriate form.
Anonymous reports will not be accepted.
Alleged violations of the NAMSS Code of
Professional Conduct may include unethical
or unprofessional behavior, falsification of
information, and other matters as stated
in the Code of Professional Conduct and
Rules of Ethics. These policies and the
appropriate reporting form can be found
on the NAMSS website.

Alleged violations will be given careful
consideration and will be fully investigated
by the NEC. Final decisions determined to
be adverse actions to the member or others
will be communicated to the NAMSS Board,
CCN, NEC, NAMSS Executive Director, and
the members' State Association Leadership.
As a medical staff professional, it is crucial
that you follow the NAMSS Standards of
Conduct and Ethics, including abiding by the
ethical principles developed to safeguard the
public and to promote quality patient care,
sharing of knowledge, fostering educational
opportunities, encouraging personal and

professional growth, and refraining from
conduct deemed harmful to the public or
inappropriate to the profession.
Going forward, I encourage you to always
remember that credentialing and the
work that we do as professionals is the
cornerstone to all patient safety. ■

Kathy James, RHIT, CPCS, CPMSM, is Chair of the
new NAMSS Ethics Committee.
