CCM Certification Made Easy was created with one purpose, to prepare you to pass the CCM Exam Since the 1st edition, published in 2014, CCM Certification Made Easy has helped thousands of case managers pass the CCM Exam. It is now the most trusted resource for CCM Exam preparation. With each update of the exam, we update the book to make sure you have the most current information available. Many updates have been made to this 3rd edition. First and most importantly, it was updated to the most recent exam blueprint. Secondly, at the request of our fans, practice questions were added; both at the end of each domain taught as well as a complete 150 question practice test at the end of the book. I also added a new first chapter to answer many of the questions we get and to help you get off to a great start. While making these improvements, I kept what everyone loved from the first 2 editions. Each chapter is broken down to cover each of the topics outlined in the exam blueprint. CCM Certification Made Easy provides a comprehensive yet concise review of the core material needed to pass the CCM exam and is provided in a well organized, easy to read format, to help you make the most efficient use of your study time. No filler or fluff, just the facts. CCM Certification Made Easy is not just another CCM Exam prep book, it is an indispensable tool for passing your CCM Exam.

Counting this since I read it about 100 times. Read the 3rd edition, very straight forward and easy to follow, great practice questions and helped me pass on my first attempt!

I read this book 3 times and did the practice exam at the back of the book twice. I joined the CCM certification made easy Facebook group that is associated with CCM certified liaisons who provided zoom videos with instructor lead presentations on the 5 domains that followed along with this book. The book and the wealth of knowledge guidance from the liaisons, and the community that I had access to that were associated with this book were integral to my successful first time pass at the CCM certification. For those testing in August 2025 and after, please wait to purchase the 4th edition coming out in June- if you already have the 3rd or were gifted the 3rd I don't think it would hurt to start learning the content early with the 3rd.

I utilized this book to pass the CCM Exam on Dec. 16, 2017. Deanna is personally committed to your success. This book is money well spent. The benefits far exceed the cost of the initial purchase!!!

Helpful layout of the vast array of topics you need to know. Easy to understand writing format. Ridiculously large print honestly feels wasteful. Guess time will tell how highly to rate this one when I take the exam in a couple of weeks!

This is the only prep book you need for the CCMC exam. I am a very busy case manager who takes care of my mother who had a stroke to say the least i am busy busy busy. This book laid out the content in a very concise and understandable manner. With the help of this book and the casemanagementstudyguide.com website I felt prepared to take the CCM exam. It gave me the understanding and knowledge to know what to expect and how to prepare for the exam in only two days. I did not suggest for other to wait two days before taking the exam to study but if circumstances limit your ability to study like mine did, know that this book will help you like no other prep book on the market. I truly feel if I had been able to read your book prior taking the exam the first time i attempted it in September I would have passed it. Your book is amazing! And I passed the exam in Decembeer of 2015!

Although I am not a nurse nor am I taking the CCM Exam, I read the book to help out the author and give her some 'outside' hints to incorporate into the next edition. The book was very well laid out, easy to understand as she separated the book into sections based on the domain. If you are looking to get certified I highly recommend getting a hold of the book.
