Current AHIC exam fees are published on the AMIA website at https://www.amia.org/amia-health-informatics-certification/FAQs. By submitting this application, you are authorizing us to charge your credit card for the correct AHIC exam fees that apply to you as of the date you submit this application, based on your answers to the questions on this application form (i.e., your residence address).

If you pay the rate for residents living in the USA but actually reside outside the USA and request for AMIA to mail your AHIC-related correspondence outside the USA, your AHIC-related correspondence will not be mailed outside the USA until you pay the USD 100 supplement to cover outside-the-USA postage costs.

AHIC exam fees are nonrefundable for any reason. Applicants are encouraged to ask us questions (via email to certification@amia.org or telephone at +1-301-637-3757) before submitting your registration if you are unsure whether you want to proceed.

Rescheduling / Cancellation Policy
If an AHIC candidate reschedules or cancels an AHIC exam appointment (directly through the Pearson website) at least three (3) calendar days before that candidate’s scheduled exam date, AMIA will apply the AHIC exam fee that candidate paid towards a subsequent AHIC exam administration within the candidate's six- (6-) month exam eligibility period.

If a candidate reschedules or cancels at least 3 calendar days before the candidate's scheduled exam appointment but does not reschedule a subsequent AHIC exam appointment within the candidate's 6-month exam eligibility period, the exam fee shall be forfeited in its entirety. To reschedule the exam, the candidate will need to pay the AHIC exam retake fee again.

Cancellations and rescheduling requests received less than three (3) calendar days before an AHIC candidate’s scheduled exam date (including if a candidate is a no-show at the scheduled exam appointment) shall result in a complete forfeiture of the exam fee, with no opportunity to defer the fee. To reschedule the exam, the candidate will need to pay the AHIC exam retake fee again.

Refund Policy
The exam fees are nonrefundable under any circumstances.
