You are required to present a valid, government-issued photo ID (e.g., driver's license, passport, state-issued ID card) on exam day or you will be considered a no-show and your exam will be cancelled. Please ensure that your first and last name on the valid, government-issued photo ID EXACTLY match your first and last name as they appear on the scheduling screens. If your first and last names are incorrect, please contact AAPC at 800-626-2633 immediately. If you have more than one last name listed on your government-issued ID, the same last names must be reflected on your confirmation email.
To correct your name, you can use the official name change request form available on the AAPC website or update your name directly through your AAPC account profile. Name change requests typically take 3–5 business days to process. If your government-issued ID does not include a last name, you can enter a period (".") as the last name in the name change form.
