In 1992, President George Bush signed Congressional House Joint Resolution #399 proclaiming the first week in November as National Medical Staff Services Awareness Week. Since then, NAMSS has partnered with hospitals, MCOs, doctor’s offices, university health systems, and government agencies to promote awareness of the medical services professionals (MSPs).
Don't forget to visit the NAMSS website to find a toolkit that you can use to teach your facility more about the importance of medical staff services. Invite colleagues to visit your office this week to learn more about what MSPs do on a daily basis. This is our week!
Use the comment field to share stories and ideas on how your facility is celebrating National Medical Staff Services Week.
