#MSPWeek® 2025
November 2–8 | Proud to Be an MSP
Each year, NAMSS celebrates MSP Week—a time to honor and celebrate the Medical Services Professionals (MSPs) whose work ensures safe, high-quality healthcare.
This year’s theme, “Proud to Be an MSP,” recognizes the wide range of roles MSPs serve across healthcare organizations and the collective impact they have on patient safety, organizational excellence, and the smooth navigation of complex processes.
Celebrating the Many Roles of MSPs
MSPs are more than credentialing experts. You are trusted leaders across healthcare systems who safeguard patients, support providers, and strengthen organizations through a variety of critical functions, including:
Voices of the MSP Community
The strength of the profession lies in its diversity and its shared commitment to excellence. During #MSPWeek®, we elevate the voices of MSPs and the important work you do!
As part of this initiative, we collected MSP Mantras – short, powerful statements that capture the unique characteristics of our members and the multifaceted roles MSPs play. In one sentence, MSPs shared what inspires them, why their role is important, and how they contribute to the evolving healthcare system. Share your mantra with us and you might see if featured in social media!

A Brief History of MSP Week
In 1992, President George H.W. Bush signed Congressional House Joint Resolution #399, officially proclaiming the first full week in November as National Medical Staff Services Awareness Week.
Since then, NAMSS has proudly partnered with hospitals, managed care organizations, physician offices, university health systems, and government agencies to increase awareness of the vital role MSPs play in healthcare. What began as a national recognition has grown into an annual tradition of celebrating MSPs everywhere.
