Foundations of Order Entry and AAMA Outreach to Payers (2023 Update)
Foundations of Order Entry and AAMA Outreach to Payers (2023 Update)
Please Note: an updated version of the qualifying ABR-OE courses is in-progress and will be published by end of February 2026. If you currently hold the ABR-OE and it expires on or after February 1, 2026, you will need to take the newest versions coming soon. Please email ContinuingEducation@aama-ntl.org for more information.  

Accurate and thorough patient records are the responsibility of every health care professional. Study facts on e-prescribing and pay-for-performance systems to gain a glimpse of ways that order entry is constantly changing.

CMAs (AAMA)® do not need the ABR-OE. The CMA (AAMA) credential meets the CMS “credentialed medical assistant” definition because CMA (AAMA) education, training, and testing includes electronic order entry. Therefore, the ABR-OE is not granted to CMAs (AAMA).

Those who are students in a CAAHEP- or ABHES-accredited medical assisting program at any point in time are not eligible to participate in the ABR-OE program. Also, those who at any point in time have held the CMA (AAMA) credential (or its predecessor credential, CMA) are not eligible for the ABR-OE.

Visit the AAMA website for more information on eligibility and application policies.
