A little long but maybe well worth the read. I just wanted to put this out there. I registered for a boot camp March 2014, the boot camp was 5/29 5/30-2014. I just recently finished all my "modules" (150+ questions to answer and scenerios to answer). that came with the bootcamp. I had to call AAPC with a question about something else. Anyway they told me that since I had taken that bootcamp and completed all the modules and questions I had completed the proficiency in ICD-10. I no longer need to take the test. My certiciate that printed out states "Has demonstrated proficiency in ICD-10-CM". I still didn't believe it so I called again and it is true. I DO NOT have to take the test. WHEW. So if you have taken a boot camp and finished all the modules 21 of them you might want to check with AAPC. To see if you are all done. I spoke to John at AAPC he said it was ok to post this. If I hadn't called them with question about something else I would of never known this. Since I never got any kind of email about it or never saw it anywhere.
 
Really? Everyone I know that took the boot camp still had to take the proficiency exam? I am assuming your modules were on line. Ours were in a booklet. If your camp had the add on of the on line modules it appears that yes you have completed the assessment. Unfortunately, mine was entirely in a booklet so I need to write the assessment :(
Thanks!

Yes, it did include the online "modules" and the test. They told me the test was included in the price so I didn't lose money for not having to take the test. I think I would of been ok with losing the money however not having to take the test. I lucked out I guess:)
 
Let me just remind my BootCamp came with online modules I had to complete.
Also sceinero's I had to do. So PLEASE check with AAPC like I said before to be sure your Boot Camp included all this and that when you finish you will be done. Don't assume that you will be done just because you took a BootCamp. PLEASE,PLEASE CHECK WITH AAPC. To be sure!!!
 
yes, I read this on my modules and emailed AAPC at once a few weeks ago.

I even printed out the response so that I have proof of being ICD-10 proficient should this ever be an issue in the future, and we are asked to take a test or something.
