The CPMA (Certified Professional Medical Auditor) is the AAPC's credential for professionals who audit medical records, coding and billing. It validates your ability to review documentation against medical record standards, apply coding and reimbursement rules, follow federal compliance requirements, and use statistical sampling to report audit findings and overpayments.
The CPMA exam evaluates your knowledge across these areas:
Documentation and signature requirements and HIPAA rules for medical records.
OIG guidance, the False Claims Act, overpayments and beneficiary inducements.
ICD-10-CM conventions, E/M documentation review and billing risk areas.
Audit scope, sampling plans, error rates and extrapolation.
Our question bank is built to help you master the CPMA exam with targeted practice and clear explanations.

Start Practice →Reviews medical records and claims to confirm that documentation supports the codes billed, finds errors and compliance risks, calculates their financial impact and educates providers.
Coding knowledge helps a lot, because auditors check whether CPT, HCPCS and ICD-10-CM codes are supported by the documentation. Many CPMA candidates already hold a coding credential.
Review documentation and E/M guidelines, the major compliance laws and audit sampling methods, then practice scoring records under time pressure. Our five CPMA practice sets cover each area.
The CPMA proves you can audit with accuracy and confidence. It supports careers in coding audit, compliance, revenue integrity and provider education.
