- AMA definition of disruptive behavior: personal conduct, whether verbal or physical, that affects or that potentially may affect patient care negatively. AMA Policy E-9.045(1). The AMA disruptive behavior definition includes, but is not limited to, conduct that interferes with one’s ability to work with other members of the health care team.
