Continuing Education Units CEU’s
Continuing Education Units (CEUs) quantify participation in approved professional development programs or activities. Currently, NAMAS seeks CEUs from AAPC and accepts AAPC CEUs for its own certifications. This prevents our members from having to obtain duplicate credits.
NAMAS requires CEUs for our certification to ensure that each auditor’s knowledge remains current and on-trend and that vital information is always and consistently reviewed. To minimize this burden, NAMAS provides CEU opportunities to our members.
By attending our Webinars, Workshops, BootCamps, Virtual Conferences, or In-person Conferences. NAMASMembers, you will find all of these on your calendar of events or in our store: https://shop.namas.co/
Other ways to earn CEUs:
- 1 NAMAS CEU will be allowed for each article written and published. Enter the information into the NAMAS CEU Tracker, and include a link to the article in the “Description” box.
- 1 NAMAS CEU will be allowed for each hour of presentation time. Enter the information into the NAMAS CEU Tracker, and include a link to the agenda in the “Description” box.
- Recertify: Challenge yourself to retake the certification exam for your credentials. Recertifying counts for all CEUs in full.
- Certify: Embrace a new credential. Earn a new credential and provide this information to NAMAS through the CEU tracker. This will satisfy renewal CEUs for the current year.
- 12 annual CEUs per certification. CEUs honored are AAPC | AHIMA | AMBA
- CEU training should closely mirror the area of expertise of the certification. For example, those holding the CEMA should have most of their CEUs on E/M topics.
- CEUs are required per year based on your “Join Date” in your MemberClicks account.
- CEUs do NOT roll over, and those accrued during one certification period cannot be used to satisfy another certification period.
NAMAS now has tracking enabled to assist in monitoring your CEUs for all our NAMAS Members.
