Re: Out-of-State Credential Verification – National Certification Medical Association (NCMA)

To Whom It May Concern:

This letter is submitted in support of the enclosed Out-of-State Credential Verification Form regarding an applicant credentialed by the National Certification Medical Association (NCMA).

NCMA is a national competency-based credentialing authority for allied health professionals, operating independently from educational institutions. NCMA administers standardized national certification examinations, establishes eligibility requirements, maintains credential validity periods, enforces ethical standards, and holds disciplinary authority over credential holders.

Credentials issued by NCMA are awarded only after successful completion of a formal written national examination designed to assess minimum professional competency. All credentials are time-limited and subject to renewal and good-standing requirements.

NCMA maintains governance through an Advisory Board composed of licensed healthcare professionals and subject-matter experts to ensure examination integrity, scope alignment, and public protection.

The enclosed verification form has been completed by NCMA in its capacity as the credentialing authority and is being submitted directly as required.

Please contact us if additional documentation is required.

Respectfully,
