Medical Surgical Auditing Proficiency Certification Exam
Validate Real-World Auditing Skills — Not Memorization
Proctored Online | Available 24/7 | Open Resource | 75 Questions
The NAMAS Medical Surgical Auditing Proficiency Certification Exam is designed to measure what truly matters in today’s healthcare environment: your ability to think critically, analyze documentation, and apply auditing principles in real-world scenarios.
This is not a memorization-based exam.
Instead of testing your ability to recall isolated facts, this proficiency exam evaluates how you audit in practice—using the same tools, references, coding manuals, and resources you would rely on in your professional role every day.
The exam is heavily scenario-based and challenges you to apply surgical auditing concepts with accuracy, compliance awareness, and confidence.
