The CPC exam is the official AAPC exam for AAPC Certified Professional Coder (CPC). Passing it earns you the Certified Professional Coder (CPC) credential, which sits at the Professional level. It is also connected to Certified Coding Specialist (CCS), Certified Outpatient Coder (COC), Certified Inpatient Coder (CIC), so what you learn carries over if you plan to pursue those paths as well. Employers treat the certification as verified proof of skill, which is why structured preparation with 2Pass4sure's practice questions pays off.

The CPC exam contains 150 multiple-choice questions questions, and the time limit is 340 minutes. Translate that into a pacing plan before exam day: know roughly how long you can afford per item, flag anything that stalls you, and circle back at the end instead of burning minutes. Two or three full timed sessions in 2Pass4sure's test engine will teach you that rhythm far better than untimed reading ever will.

The passing score for the CPC exam is Approximately 70%, and the official registration fee is $399–$499 USD (varies by membership and region). Remember that a failed attempt means paying that fee again in full for a retake, so treat self-assessment as part of the budget: run 2Pass4sure's practice questions under timed conditions and only book your seat once your scores sit comfortably above the passing bar.

No formal prerequisite required. Recommended: 1–2 years of medical coding experience or completion of AAPC CPC training. Eligibility details can change, so before you register, confirm the current requirements on the official exam page: https://www.aapc.com/certification/cpc/.
