AAPC Introduces Practice Management Training and Certification
 

AAPC (www.aapc.com) has announced the Certified Physician Practice Manager (CPPM) credential. This advanced certification is designed for practice managers wanting to validate their expertise, and for those with strong coding/billing experience who are ready to advance their careers in practice management.
 
“Small- to mid-sized practices have struggled for years to find qualified business managers at reasonable cost,” says Dixon Davis, vice president of practice management at AAPC.  “AAPC’s practice management training and credentialing enables those with the years of experience to fill in their knowledge gap and meet the demands of a modern practice. Whether it’s revenue cycle management, compliance regulations, human resources, health information technology, or marketing, the CPPM training and credential will provide valuable knowledge for those hungry to push their career to the next level.”
 
Practice management professionals successful at passing the 200-question CPPM exam will have demonstrated proficiency in the following:

Options for CPPM exam preparation include a three month online practice management course, a course manual (for independent study), three day boot camps held periodically throughout the country, and a 50-question online practice exam.
