Certification Program for AIS Coders
AAAM is proud to announce the
establishment of a Certification program for Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS)
coders. The AIS Certification Board (AISC.B) has been established under
the auspices of AAAM’s International Injury Scaling Committee.
Members
of the AISC.B include:
Jan Price, RN, MSA, CAISS - Chairman
Wanda Bowen, CSTR, CAISS
Jeri Dihle, CSTR, CAISS, RHIT

The AIS Certification Board endorses
the concept of voluntary periodic certification by examination for all
AIS Coding Specialists. Certification is part of a credentialing
process. It focuses specifically on the individual and is an indication
of current competence in a specialized area of practice. Board
Certification provides formal recognition of AIS coding knowledge and
application. Experienced AIS coders are encouraged to obtain
certification.
The certification program is
administered for the AISC.B by the Professional Testing Corporation (PTC),
1350 Broadway – 17th floor, New York, New York 10018 (www.ptcny.com).
