I signed up for ACPM and we have done four of the five training modules. The modules are very good--much more informative/detailed than the training videos for the regular AC. As Laurie with AC said, the reason it takes 6-8wks is that it takes that long to get set up on the clearinghouse. We had to shift from Gateway to Emdeon. The training itself could be done in an afternoon. AC has chosen to spread it out while the clearinghouse is set up.

I share some of Josue's frustration as far as communication to/from our implementation specialist. Part of that was a result of losing the first specialist--she left AC. We now have a second person that is working with us on implementation. Part of the problem has been internal issues in our office. Part of it is just that the implementation specialists are busy trying to help lots of folks get started with ACPM.
