Exam Fees

There is an examination fee of $80 each time you take the test. Payment will NOT be accepted at the test center. Examination fees are non-refundable and non-transferable. Candidates not employed in a Medicaid-certified nursing home or who have not received an offer of employment from a Medicaid-certified nursing home are permitted to pay their own examination fee. If you are not currently employed in a nursing home, you may pay the fee yourself.

Vouchers

Vouchers offer another convenient way to pay for exams. Vouchers can be purchased in the Credentia platform either singly or in volume. To redeem a voucher as payment when scheduling a test, simply indicate voucher as the payment method and provide the voucher number. All vouchers are pre-paid. Vouchers are non-refundable and non-returnable. Vouchers expire twelve (12) months from the date they are issued. Voucher expiration dates cannot be extended.

Cancellation and Rescheduling

Explains procedures for cancellation and rescheduling of the Medication Assistant Examination in Washington

You may cancel or reschedule an examination online in your Credentia account. For details on how to cancel or reschedule an examination, visit https://credentia.com/test-takers/scmace and click on “How to Cancel or Reschedule an Exam” in the RESOURCES section of the webpage.

Online Written (or Oral) examinations must be canceled or rescheduled at least forty-eight (48) hours before the scheduled examination time.

If you do not cancel or reschedule your examination within the required time frame and do not show up for your scheduled examination, you will be responsible for the examination fee. Your fee will not be refunded and cannot be transferred to a new examination date, and you may not give your examination date to another person.

If you do not report to an examination at your scheduled time, you will be considered a “no-show” and fees paid will be forfeited. However, an unexcused absence will not count as one of your three (3) attempts to pass the exam.
