AAPC · Current AAPC 135-question, 15-domain CPPM examination outline, confirmed on 2026-10-22. The outline states no version number or effective date. AAPC connects the requested Certified Professional Practice Manager title to its current Certified Physician Practice Manager credential; no formal renaming date was established. The assigned slug is preserved. The 2026 study guide's June 20, 2025 update notation dates that publication, not the examination outline.
