MSHO continues to support the professional growth of our dedicated reimbursement specialists by offering the Certified Hematology and Oncology Coder (CHONC™) workshop and exam. The Society has partnered with the American Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC) to conduct a review course & online exam, for experienced oncology billers and coders who are seeking credentialing. The review course will be held on Thursday, March 13 at Weber’s Boutique Hotel in Ann Arbor.   

CHONC examinees will be tested on:

While there is no requirement, AAPC strongly recommends that candidates have at least two years of experience in the specialty. These are difficult, high-level examinations not meant for individuals with limited or no coding experience.
