Kayla Christianson, CMA, has been employed six years by the cardiology practice of three physicians. She is a graduate of a CAAHEP-accredited school. Furthermore, Kayla received extensive hands-on training performing ECGs while doing her required externship. Kayla has completed an ECG ordered by Dr. Hsu for Mrs. Warner, a 76-year- old patient. Dr. Hsu, Kayla's boss, telephoned her explaining that he was behind schedule doing rounds at the hospital. He asked her to do him a favor and interpret Mrs. Warner's ECG, sign his name, and fax the report to Mrs. Warner's referring internist, who is expecting the results. W. Given the scope of Kayla's education, training, and years of experience as a CMA, would this "favor" fall within the AAMA guidelines of her responsibilities? 2. Would any portion of Dr. Hsu's request fall within the guidelines? If so, which portion(s)? Is an exception to these guidelines ever allowed? 3. How should Kayla respond to Dr. Hsu?

From the information given, it should be noted that the guidelines of CMA as stipulated under the American Association of Medical Assistant prohibits the CMA from interpreting the medical data of the patient. Therefore, the favor that was asked by Dr. Hsu of Kayla is simply against the guidelines.

Even though the favor that was asked by Dr. Hsu was prohibited by AAMA, it should be noted that the final part of the favor about faxing the report to the internist would fall within AAMA guidelines.

In conclusion, the best way that Kayla can respond to Dr. Hsu is to decline doing the favor.
