Application Review Fees
- AAFP Credit System application fees are for review services rendered and are non-refundable or transferable.
- The review process begins once the review fee is paid in full.
- Standard application review processing is 30 business days from the receipt of payment.
- Rush reviews available upon request (additional fee required). Reviews conducted in 3-5 business days.
- Online payment options: Mastercard, Visa, American Express, and Discover.
Discount available for non-profit organizations: Non-profit CME Provider organizations that have a 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(6) status under the IRC, or are bona fide federal, state, or local governmental entities or agencies qualify for discounted review fees. To qualify, a copy of the determination letter from the IRS must accompany the first CME application. The AAFP will keep the letter on file for future reference.
* The $100 data entry fee is applied to the review fee for applications submitted by mail, fax, or e-mail.
