Mark your calendars for September 20-21 for the return of the National Provider Enrollment Forum, featuring a brand-new credentialing track for MSPs!

"MSPs have been working tirelessly to support their organizations, physicians and patients through a very challenging time in healthcare, but we are coming out on the other side. Attending the NPE Forum will provide MSPs a great opportunity to reconnect and network with their peers while expanding their knowledge on many enrollment and credentialing topics impacting them today," says speaker Amy M. Niehaus, MBA, CPMSM, CPCS.

Violence against healthcare workers still persists, despite many efforts to combat it. According to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data, the incidence of violence-related healthcare worker injuries has steadily increased for at least a decade. And in 2018, healthcare and social service workers were five times more likely to experience work-place violence (WPV) than all other workers—comprising 73% of all nonfatal workplace injuries and illnesses requiring days away from work.
