HCCB certification program now up and running
The Healthcare Compliance Certification Board (HCCB) in Philadelphia launched its certification program for compliance executives last week. The program marks the first major effort to establish baseline standards for compliance officer training and education.
The Health Care Compliance Association (HCCA) established HCCB last year to develop and manage the certification program. HCCB contracted with Applied Measurement Professionals Inc. to assist in the development, administration, scoring, and analysis of the examination.
The health care compliance exam is available five days a week during regular business hours, at various locations in all 50 states. The fee is $250 for HCCA members, and $350 for non-members.
To help candidates prepare for the exam, HCCB has developed a 15-page candidate handbook that includes an application, information on test locations and eligibility requirements, a detailed outline of the test, and a list of books and periodicals candidates can use to prepare.
