The experience purchasing exams has been adjusted to reflect AAPC's move to fully electronic exam testing options - eliminating paper and pencil exams.

Please note:

  • With exam purchases, you can now choose between an electronic 2-attempt or 1-attempt voucher.

  • The electronic exam voucher is redeemable for a test format of your choice:

    • *Live Remote Proctored exam: taken on a computer at a location of your choice. It requires a closed room with window coverings, free from distraction or interruption, a high-speed internet connection, a computer, an external webcam, speakers, and a microphone. This exam is proctored (administered and supervised) via external webcam by our proctoring partner, ProctorU. *Option unavailable to members outside U.S., Bahamas and Jamaica.

    • Testing Center exam: Taken on a computer at a testing center, this exam does not require any special equipment from the test-taker. This exam is proctored (administered and supervised) by personnel at the testing center. This exciting new option for the U.S., Bahamas and Jamaica and will be available to schedule January 5, 2024.

You do not need to choose your method of testing upon exam voucher purchase. You will select your preferred testing format upon scheduling.

*Members with unused in-person exam vouchers will be notified that their voucher has been transferred to an electronic exam voucher after January 4, 2024.

We just released a new navigation layout (for the primary navigation) that improves mobile browsing and elevates a few items that were previous buried deeper in the site. We've, also, separated B2B/Corporate navigation items so business users can find things easier. We'll continue to evolve the navigation and search to better help you find what you're after quicker.
