The CFCM Study Guide is designed to assist candidates in reading the FAR by summarizing each part and highlighting critical definitions and information. It is intended as a detailed study outline of the main topics within each FAR part and includes specific references. The 4th Edition is divided by FAR subchapters A–H. Each subchapter section contains a brief “at a glance” summary of the FAR parts contained in that subchapter followed by a more in-depth summary of each part. The CFCM Study Guide provides references to specific thresholds, limitations, and requirements. Use the citations provided in the guide to find the most up-to-date thresholds in the FAR. This study guide has been updated to incorporate changes up to and including Federal Acquisition Circular 2021-06. As stated above, CFCM candidates are responsible for updates. Check National Contract Management's website for additional information about what is covered on the CFCM examination. The CFCM Study Guide comes with a full CFCM practice exam at the end of the book as well as an answer key to self-grade your responses. As noted, the questions on the practice exam may resemble those on the examination but were developed independently of the actual exam. Therefore, they are not the actual exam questions. Memorization of the practice exam questions and answers is not sufficient preparation for the examination.

This User’s Guide is intended to support the design, implementation, analysis, interpretation, and quality evaluation of registries created to increase understanding of patient outcomes. For the purposes of this guide, a patient registry is an organized system that uses observational study methods to collect uniform data (clinical and other) to evaluate specified outcomes for a population defined by a particular disease, condition, or exposure, and that serves one or more predetermined scientific, clinical, or policy purposes. A registry database is a file (or files) derived from the registry. Although registries can serve many purposes, this guide focuses on registries created for one or more of the following purposes: to describe the natural history of disease, to determine clinical effectiveness or cost-effectiveness of health care products and services, to measure or monitor safety and harm, and/or to measure quality of care. Registries are classified according to how their populations are defined. For example, product registries include patients who have been exposed to biopharmaceutical products or medical devices. Health services registries consist of patients who have had a common procedure, clinical encounter, or hospitalization. Disease or condition registries are defined by patients having the same diagnosis, such as cystic fibrosis or heart failure. The User’s Guide was created by researchers affiliated with AHRQ’s Effective Health Care Program, particularly those who participated in AHRQ’s DEcIDE (Developing Evidence to Inform Decisions About Effectiveness) program. Chapters were subject to multiple internal and external independent reviews.
