Hello forum, I have been researching CEU opportunities for my CPMA certification and they are difficult to find. Any ideas where they can be found? Thank you!
 
your health Business Monthly subscribtion to AAPC gives 1 CEU per book. I also have CPMA and use 24 CEU's from magazines. You can also use Medicare learning network and if you work for an organization that participates in NCPO network thru Joel Duhl in Florida they also have free cue's for members. Not sure where your located. Any insurance conference that is free to attend will also give CEU's for participation. Just remember to ask. They don't always say they have CEU's when you sign up. Most important is any location coding chapter in your area. Ceu's are free for 1-2 hours usually once a month.

I signed up for the yearly webinar subscription from AAPC. The good news is they have a wealth of webinars that will get you your CEU's in no time, and they're great material.

The bad news is that I keep adding them to my CEU tracker, and for some reason they are counting towards my CPC but not my CPMA. Not sure why. Even the ones that say specifically that they are certified for CPMA CEU's. Got my CEMC ones without an issue and my CPC ones no problem.... but still says 0 for my CPMA.
 
Mike, I noticed that once I hit the required number of CMPA CEUs, they automatically go to the CPC. It's the same with my CEMC. I don't understand why, but at least we still have our CPMA covered!
 
CEU tracker

Hi,
I just learned weeks ago that to be able to distribute your earned CEU to your correct credential/s, you can hit the edit button, hit save, then it will let you post your CEU to the CPC core or to the specialty, CPMA etc. Hope this helps.
 
CEUs toward your CPMA

You can, designate the Healthcare Business Monthly magazines, to go toward a specific credential. You would select the "Edit" link for each CEU you want to change, click 'Save' on the next screen, and then scroll down and switch the designation on the final screen and click 'Save' again.
Hope this help!!!
 
Healthcare Business Monthly

Hi All -
I just obtained my CPMA and I'm researching if the Healthcare Business Monthly CEU's can be used for the CPMA. I don't see it stated on the website or in the magazine. Do any of you have confirmation from the AAPC that they are allowed to be used for that purpose?

Thank you

Hi,

Can you please tell me where is the edit button.

Thanks

Chapter meetings that do coding updates right when they come up seem to also grant specialty CEUs. You can try looking for 2018 CPT coding updates in your area or the 2019 ICD-10-CM Coding updates when they come out.

Did you ever verify this? I'd like to know too! Thanks

The Healthcare Business Monthly quizzes typically are only for Core CEUs.

CPMA CEUs need to be relevant to auditing somehow. I get most of mine from chapter meetings.

I've seen the occasional outside vendor webinar that was approved for CPMA CEUs too. For example, I've found that some of the Compliance Series through AMBA received CPMA CEUs. https://www.americanmedicalbillingassociation.com/webinars/compliance-webinar/

you can click on the edit icon on the right and change to CPMA and even splint between to certs. It will tend to post on the primary cert instead:)
