Compliance Today Articles and Quizzes
As an exclusive member benefit, Compliance Today is published online each month by Health Care Compliance Association (HCCA). HCCA members can access the magazine on COSMOS, where they can read, print, and download recent articles, search past issues, and preview a collection of compliance books and newsletters.
To learn more about COSMOS, click here.
Reading and becoming familiar with the content in the monthly magazine is a great way to earn CEUs toward CCB certification. To earn CEUs, read all the articles designated as [CEU] in the magazine issue and take the corresponding online magazine quiz. The monthly quiz will feature at least one question about each CEU article, so be sure you have read them all before proceeding.
Quizzes are considered non-live CEUs. Individuals can only earn a total of 10 non-live CEUs toward a CCB certification, and 20 non-live CEUs for certification renewal; the remainder must be live CEUs
Available Compliance Today magazine articles and their corresponding CEU quizzes are listed below, with direct links to the full text on COSMOS.
Individuals must first log in to their free, password-protected account in order to take the quizzes online.
