Introducing the 2011 NAMSS Blog Subject-Matter Expert

Bonnie Conley, CPCS has been selected as the 2011 NAMSS Blog Subject-Matter Expert. In her role, Ms. Conley will work with NAMSS to communicate the latest news and issues of interest to medical services professionals (MSPs) to the public through the NAMSS Blog.

Ms. Conley, CPCS is the Director of Medical Staff Services at North Hills Hospital in North Richland Hills, TX and Adjunct Faculty for El Centro College’s Continuing Education Medical Staff Services Program. Ms. Conley has 20 plus years of experience in the MSP field in hospitals, managed care, commercial/proprietary CVOs and physician recruiting. She has served the MSP profession on a state and local level as the President of both the Texas Society Medical Staff Services (TSMSS) and the Dallas Fort Worth Chapter of Medical Staff Services Professionals (MSP-FWD).

Ms. Conley has served NAMSS in various capacities including the Education Committee, the Conference Planning Committee and currently as a member of the Ethics Committee. Ms. Conley has been recognized by TSMSS with the Golden Quill and Outstanding Provider Credentialing Specialist Awards and by NAMSS with the Certificate of Merit. Ms. Conley has a passion for the MSP profession and the use of technology. She recently completed a new website for the MSP-FWD Chapter which includes social media and video CE capabilities. She is married with two grown children and enjoys gardening, blogging, photography, travel and cooking.

In addition to welcoming Ms. Conley as the new NAMSS Blog Subject-Matter Expert, NAMSS would also like to thank Carole LaPine, CPMSM, CPCS for her work as the 2010 Subject-Matter Expert. Ms. LaPine was instrumental in identifying hot issues, helping NAMSS to be at the forefront of reporting policy news related to the MSP profession. With her help, the NAMSS Blog grew from a new idea for communicating to the NAMSS membership, to a recognized source for healthcare news that now has close to 900 subscribers and about 500 visitors a month.

The NAMSS Blog is always on the lookout for news items and issues of interest to MSPs. Send any articles, news tips, and even questions and comments to news@namss.org.
