But before you can claim this credential, you’ll need to take —and pass —the CCMA exam.  \nWhether you’re just beginning to explore the certification process or are at a point in your career journey where your next step is to take the exam, this resource is here to help.  \nInside, you’ll find a comprehensive checklist that covers everything you need to know and do to prepare for the test, from study materials to exam day tips.  \nWHAT IS  \nTHE CCMA EXAM?  \nThe CCMA exam is the final step on the path to earning your certification. To be eligible to sit for the test, you must meet one of the following criteria:  \nHave a high school diploma or GED (or plan to receive one in the next 12 months) and have completed a medical assistant training program within the past 5 years  \nOr have a high school diploma or GED and:  \n• 1 year of supervised work experience in the medical assisting field within the last 3 years, or  \n• 2 years of supervised work experience in the medical assisting field within the last 5 years  \nOnce eligible, independent test takers will need to apply to take the exam through the NHA website. If you’re enrolled in Advanced eClinical’s online medical assistant training  program, you’ll be automatically registered for the exam upon successful completion of the course.  \nExam Costs & Format  \nThe cost to take the CCMA exam is $165. That said, Advanced eClinical students are able to take the exam for no additional cost.  \nThe test itself consists of 180 multiplechoice questions, including 30 “pretest”questions that don’t count toward your final score.  \nThese questions are randomly spread throughout the 3-hour exam, meaning that you won’t know which ones they are.  \nIn terms of subject matter, the CCMA exam quizzes test takers on 7 key areas of knowledge, also referred to as “domains.”These are:  \n• Foundational Knowledge and Basic Science (makes up 10% of the exam)  \n• Anatomy and Physiology (5% of the exam)  \n• Clinical Patient Care (56%)  \n• Patient Care Coordination and Education (8%)  \n• Administrative Assisting (8%)  \n• Communication and Customer Service (8%)  \n• Medical Law and Ethics (5%)  \nScoring & Recertification  \nWhen you take the exam online, your results will be available in your NHA account within 2 days of scoring. To pass, you’ll need a scaled score of 390, which equates to correctly answering roughly 78% of the questions. Once you’re certified, you’ll need to recertify every 2 years to maintain your credentials.  \nCCMA Exam Preparation Checklist 4  \nHOW TO PREPARE:  \nSTUDY MATERIALS & RESOURCES  \nThere’s a lot riding on this test, so it’s understandable that preparing for the CCMA exam can feel overwhelming. But with the right resources and study plan, you’ll be well-equipped to pass with flying colors. Here are some tools and strategies you can use to get ready:  \n01 Official NHA Study Guides & Practice Tests  \nThe NHA offers several official study guides and practice exams for a fee. These materials provide a thorough review of the exam topics and enable you to familiarize yourself with the types of questions you’ll encounter on test day. Alternatively, you can review the CCMA Test Plan, which “provides both a summary and detailed outlin","cbCaiuqEcArqZYUD","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuqEcArqZYUD","pdf",714611,12,"English","# Introduction\n# What Is the CCMA Exam?\n# How to Prepare: Study Materials & Resources\n# Making a Plan\n# CCMA Certification from Advanced eClinical Training\n# Exam Day Prep\n# After the Exam","[{\"question\":\"What are the eligibility requirements to sit for the CCMA exam?\",\"answer\":\"Eligibility includes having a high school diploma or GED and completing a medical assistant training program within the past 5 years, or having high school diploma/GED plus supervised work experience in the medical assisting field within specified time windows.\"},{\"question\":\"How much does the CCMA exam cost, and what is the exam format?\",\"answer\":\"The exam costs $165, and Advanced eClinical students can take it with no additional cost.
