Why Join The MMBA?
"We are MORE than JUST Billers! We're your entire Revenue Cycle Team!"
In-Person Chapter Meetings
MMBA organizes educational seminars on medical billing, coding, RCM, and other medical office topics to keep members abreast of current information. Speakers representing third-party payers and experts from various health care fields are often asked to participate. MMBA holds two-three in-person meetings a year covering various hot topics. Chapter meetings are open to non-members for a nominal fee and FREE for our members. Our in-person meetings are open to all members regardless of chapter location.
Continuing Education Units
Our volunteer board members strive to create as much valuable content as we possibly can for our members. We offer a variety of content relating to topics revolving around revenue cycle management, medical billing, coding, the physician office professional, and the hospital employee. We create the following CEU opportunities per year:
- 10-12 CEUs per year with our LIVE webinars.
- Between 3-5 CEUs per in-person meeting.
- Two-three in-person meetings.
- Between 8-12 CEUs from OnDemand Webinars available until the expiration date.
- Six CEUs for our Annual Expo.
- Special Event opportunities vary between 3-5 CEU's.
The CEU's that our MMBA offers per year can potentially total up to 35-40!!
(CEUs are all approved by AAPC and AMBA and accepted by AHIMA's Recertification Guidelines.)
Annual Billing Expo
MMBA hosts an all-day event in the Fall of each year. This meeting covers timely billing and coding topics. MMBA non-members are welcome to attend for a nominal fee, and members receive a significantly discounted rate.
Networking
MMBA membership offers a vast variety of networking opportunities. Members can access our Q&A Forum, interact with a variety of people in the healthcare field including billers, coders, managers, and third-party payer representatives at the various chapter meetings held throughout the state. Expo is a great place to network with us, the vendors we have, and the variety of speakers we promote. We post updates on social media platforms frequently, so be sure to follow us on Facebook and LinkedIn.
Q&A Forum
MMBA offers a Members-Only Q&A Forum. Our forum allows you to ask difficult questions, post replies to others having similar issues, and follow interesting discussions. You will receive answers from your peers, as well as the board.
Certification
MMBA has partnered with the American Medical Billing Association (AMBA) to offer a certification program for billers. The Certified Medical Reimbursement Specialist (CMRS) certification allows medical billers, managers, and coders to distinguish themselves and become more competitive in their line of work. Certification helps you stand out in the crowd to be recognized as a competent and dedicated individual in this profession. Again, MMBA's CEUs are approved by AAPC and AMBA, and accepted by AHIMA's 60% rule.
Job Openings
Our website allows employers to post various job openings. We are working on getting a forum set up where members can post jobs they are interested in, or in search of, to help employers connect with knowledgeable and accredited employees.
Billing Buzz
MMBA’s Billing Buzz is an online forum exclusive to our members. It is filled with the latest industry hot topics, membership news, and helpful resources to help you and your office succeed. Our Billing Buzz content is created on the 5th of every month and is a FREE resource to our members who support our mission of education, certification, and networking.
Affordable
MMBA's Annual Membership fee is an affordable rate for what you receive from us. We take great pride in how great of a deal our membership is, and we work very hard to keep our prices as low as possible for our members. Our volunteer board members give so much more than they ask for in return. It is our mission and our goal to provide reliable and great content at an affordable price. Having more members helps us offset our costs and keep providing the best content and competitive pricing, so please continue sharing our membership information with a friend, colleague, or family member you know is in the field of medical billing, coding, or other medical/physician office type of work. Did you also know that if your office registers for three memberships (or more) you get a GROUP DISCOUNT! Isn't that just the cherry on top of affordability?
A corporate discount rate is applied at three or more registered together from the same company.
**Our members save BIG on registration costs for all our MMBA events, especially our recorded webinars, which are FREE for our members!
