Examinations are proctored through American Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC) local chapter and Professional Medical Coding Curriculum (PMCC) sites.

To reflect updates in the recognized code sets (CPT®, ICD-9-CM, and HCPCS), the AAPC develops new CPC®, CPC-H®, and CPC-P® examinations yearly. The AAPC only offers the current year examination.

Examination dates will not appear online after the "four week registration deadline" has expired because it is too late to register for that examination date.

When your examination application has been processed, you will be able to view the proctor's name and telephone number on our website under the member log in area under my scheduled events. Contact the proctor for further details of the examination time and location, if it is not listed there. (Refer to the Examination Application "How to Apply")

Several examination sites have limited seating. Registrations are processed in the order they are received, so register early.

Application Approval: In order for the application to be processed and approved, all required documents must be submitted, at the AAPC’s office, at least four weeks prior to the examination date. Incomplete applications, or those received less than four weeks before the examination date, will not be processed. Examination payments are processed whether or not applications are accepted and may be applied to a future examination date. If examination application is not processed for any reason you will be notified by email.

Note: To reflect updates in the recognized code sets (CPT®, ICD-9-CM, and HCPCS), the AAPC develops new CPC®, CPC-H®, and CPC-P® examinations yearly. The AAPC only offers the current year examination.
