CHPC Study Group

  • 1.  Study Group Announcement...Group 240

    Posted 07-22-2022 09:56 AM
    That's right...soon is the launch of Group 240.  The name is derived from the days between the launch date of the study group and the first day of the HCCA CI 2023 which is 4/23/2023.

    First spots go to those on my listserv...and if there are any left then I will open those up to others. I'll let people know if any spots are left in two weeks.  This will also VERY LIKELY be a CHPC focus as I've focused on both the CHC & CHPC for the past 3 study groups.  Doing both at the same time, though it can be done...is a bit more time consuming so I'll be focusing primarily only on one exam this time around.  Very likely after the CI will be the next CHC study group that I lead.

    Quick shout out to 9 of 11 people in the current study group that passed (3 passed CHC, 6 passed CHPC).  The other two are looking to retake their exams within the first couple of weeks of next month as they were very close to passing  The good news...they did not lose the most points in Domain #2....BUT...they both admitted they read way more into the questions that they think they should have and one finally admitted changing "more than 10 answers" over the course of the exam.

    Of course we will never know if what they did (reading more into the question, changing answers) helped or hurt their final score...but I continue to stand strong on the ongoing advice of reading the question and answering with only what is provided and certainly unless you are 100% sure...do not change an answer.  All 11 strongly agreed that using the "do your homework" approach was critically important in attacking the FIRST, NEXT, BEST types of questions.

    Nice job to the 9.  For the other 2....get back into the game...sharpen up...and let's get this done! 

    By the way...talk about pressure...2 of the people that passed their CHCs were in a "must win" situation in that they both had deadlines of August 1 to get their certifications or they would be dismissed from their jobs as they needed to get certified within one year of employment  I don't know about you...but that sounds like a lot of pressure so extra CCCCCCCCs to these 2 for rising to the occasion!

    Now that's good news on a Friday!
