Use Quality Networks
7
•
Networking will help us achieve anything, so just do it and be ready. Let’s better
ourselves by attending conferences and webinars focused on small practice
management. Network, share, and most of all, ask questions/generate
conversation about these issues.
•
Everyone is there to help you and learn from you. I know for sure, because
without my networks and continued education, I would never be the successful
practice manager I am today.
•
My doctors are full of praise. If they have a concern and I am not sure, they look
at me and say, “Go ask PAHCOM”. Now that is a good feeling!

CMM
What is a CMM?
PAHCOM is nationally recognized as the leader
in health care management certification for
administrative professionals working in
physician practices and in various ambulatory
service centers. This Certification validates the
professional competency and relevance that

workplace. Operational efficiency, regulatory
compliance, and financial performance are
strengthened when PAHCOM-certified
professionals are in place.

CMM
Why is Certification Important?

performance on the exam.

management to employers, patients, staff and the community.

show the importance of having skilled professionals leading their offices &
safeguarding the needs of both the practice and the patients.

starts thinking about an EHR, the
thought process is pretty
intimidating and intense.
