HFMA South Texas Chapter Certification Update March 18, 2020 Update With the recent postponement and cancellation of upcoming HFMA live education, chapter leader training and local chapter and regional events, HFMA is implementing a certification maintenance grace period for all active CHFP, CRCR, and Fellows with a due date of May 31, 2020. The maintenance deadline will be extended from May 31, 2020 to October 1, 2020 for eligible CHFPs and Fellows. HFMA will work with certified members on a case-by-case basis if they are unable to meet the requirement by the extended due date. On Friday, March 20, 2020, an email will be distributed to CHFPs and Fellows providing further details on the 2020 maintenance due date change. Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you, Shirley Heavlin Certification Operations Administrator careerservices@hfma.org ATTENTION CHFP AND FHFMA MEMBERS: In order to maintain your certification, you are now required to renew your membership by May 31st of each year, and to also complete all educational requirements by May 31st of the year that your 60 education hours are due. There is no longer a grace period if you miss the 05/31 deadline.  Please be sure to renew your HFMA membership by 05/31 each year.  In addition, complete your educational hours by 05/31 of your maintenance period (maintenance periods are every 3 years and depend on the date you became certified).
