About this exam
The ANCC Case Management Nursing Certification Examination (CMGT-BC) is a professional certification exam for registered nurses who want to demonstrate expertise in nursing case management. It is relevant to nurses working in care coordination, utilization review, transitions of care, and related roles. The exam assesses knowledge used to support safe, effective, and appropriate care across settings—not simply familiarity with one employer’s procedures. Candidates should review the current ANCC eligibility requirements and test content outline before applying, because official requirements and exam details can change.
Preparation should cover the case management process from initial screening through evaluation of outcomes. Important areas include referral and eligibility decisions, comprehensive health and psychosocial assessment, individualized care plans and measurable goals, and coordination across care settings. Candidates should also be ready to apply sound judgment to realistic clinical and systems-based scenarios. Use the current ANCC outline to organize study, then review weak areas and explain why each answer is appropriate. Online multiple-choice practice can help build familiarity with question wording, but it should support—not replace—content review.
How to prepare for the ANCC CMGT-BC exam
- Study the current ANCC test content outline and map each topic to your experience, especially screening and eligibility, psychosocial assessment, care planning, and coordination across settings.
- Use timed sets of scenario-based questions to practice prioritizing needs and selecting appropriate next steps; review the reasoning behind both correct and incorrect options.
- Check the current ANCC certification handbook for eligibility, application steps, exam format, and recommended references, then make a study schedule that revisits weaker content areas.
