Purchase the Updated CHAA Online Preparation Course

The NAHAM Education Committee has been hard at work to develop an updated CHAA Online Preparation Course, which now aligns with the CHAA Examination Content Outline.

The CHAA Online Certification Preparation Course is an internet - based program designed to help you assess your knowledge of the CHAA exam content and identify areas in which additional study is necessary before you take the exam.

The CHAA Online Preparation Course should be used once you have begun the study process to identify areas of strengths and weaknesses. The NAHAM CHAA Online Preparation Course is a learning tool, and does not guarantee success on the certification exam. Please reference the CHAA exam candidate guide for information on regulatory bodies and standards that determine the examination content.

Please note: this course expires 90 days after purchase date.

Regular Member price: $50
Non-Member Price: $75

You must be logged into the NAHAM website to purchase this item.

Congratulations to Jessica Zlomke, who became a Certified Healthcare Access Associate this spring! Jessica works in admissions at Montrose Memorial Hospital in Colorado. To prepare for the CHAA exam, Jessica spent hours studying and taking pre-exams. She also got advice from her peers who became certified in 2016.

Since earning the CHAA designation, Jessica feels confident in her abilities to incorporate NAHAM online tools and education sources into the day-to-day functions at her facility. When asked for advice for those thinking about earning certification, Jessica replied, “STUDY! The certification is challenging, yet rewarding. In the short time I have had the privilege of being a NAHAM member I have grown and am able to offer our team new ideas and process improvements."
