Chronic Care Professional Recertification

HealthSciences Institute encourages Chronic Care Professionals to stay abreast of developments in the rapidly advancing fields of population-based health and disease management. Accordingly, Chronic Care Professional (CCP) certification is valid for three years. Your certification expires on the last day of the month of your certification period. You may apply for recertification up to 90 days prior, or, 90 day after the end of your certification period. For example, if your certification period ends in December 2007, you may apply for recertification any time between October 1, 2007 and March 31, 2008. You may recertify either through documentation of continuing education OR re-examination:

Recertification Through Documentation of Continuing Education

You may recertify by documenting completion of at least 15 hours of continuing education (1 hour = 60 minutes) during your three year certification period. Courses (taken or taught), of 1 hour or longer, that address the range of evidence-based population-based health and chronic care management topics are eligible. Examples include:

  • Chronic disease management programs, approaches or interventions
  • Consumer self-management support
  • Behavior change facilitation
  • Wellness, health promotion or disease prevention
  • Aging or elder care
  • Health care quality improvement
To recertify through continuing education, you will need to complete a brief web-based form documenting the title of each continuing education program, location, date of program, and hours completed. A $75 administrative fee will apply.

Upon review of the information submitted and receipt of payment, you will be issued a new Chronic Care Professional Certificate within 4 to 6 weeks, valid for an additional three-year period. Although we do not require applicants for recertification to submit paper documentation of continuing education, HealthSciences Institute reserves the right to request additional documentation to verify program attendance for up to one-year following application for recertification.

Recertification Through Re-Examination

Alternatively, you may recertify by retaking the current Chronic Care Professional certification examination. Upon completing the examination and receiving a 70% or better score, applicants will be deemed to have met all recertification requirements. A $325 examination fee will be assessed in addition to the $75 recertification fee.

Alternatively, you may recertify by retaking the current Chronic Care Professional certification examination. Upon completing the examination and receiving a 70% or better score, your certification will be renewed. A $325 examination fee will be assessed in addition to the $75 recertification fee.
