OASIS Certification Exams

These voluntary exams have been developed to allow participants to demonstrate their abilities in accurate OASIS completion.

Certificate for OASIS Specialist, Clinical (COS-C) Exam:  Now administered by OASIS Answers, Inc., administrative changes have precluded OCHCH from hosting an exam site for the COS-C Exam, as done in the past. COS-C candidates may arrange to take the exam on a date of their choosing at one of five regional computer-based testing centers in Ohio. Details at oasisanswers.com.

Home Care Clinical Specialist, OASIS (HCS-O) Exam:  This new certification is designed for home care clinicians with at least two years' experience working with OASIS. HCS-O candidates may arrange to take the exam at a testing center in Ohio. Call the Board of Medical Specialty Coding at (800) 897-4509. Details at BMSC Exam Information and in the AHCC Online Store.
