Paying for the PPR

The Program Performance Report (PPR) is an annual subscription service offered by the American Society for Clinical Pathology Board of Certification (ASCP BOC). The PPR annual fee is $175 per program; if you oversee multiple programs, you will receive multiple invoices.  

If you do not purchase the upcoming year's PPR by January 1, you will not have access to any PPR data after that date. Paying prior to January 1 will ensure uninterrupted access to your PPR. By paying the current year's invoice, you will receive access to current and previous PPR data for the full calendar year. 

If you have not paid your annual subscription fee, you will see a link to View PPR Invoice Order in the Management Tools section of your ASCP account. Each fall, program directors will receive an email notification with a link to their PPR invoice(s) for the following year. If you do not receive an email notification by November 15th, log in to your ASCP account to view your invoice.

If you are unable to access your invoice online, need a PDF copy of your invoice, or need the invoice sent to someone other than the Program Director, please contact us at PDInfo@ascp.org.

We encourage payment to be submitted by credit card or electronically to avoid significant processing delays. **We only accept payments as noted below; Purchase orders are not accepted.

 

Pay by Credit Card (**Preferred Method)

  • Log in to your ASCP account
  • Under Management Tools click View PPR Invoice Order
  • Follow the online instructions

OR

 Credit card payments are processed overnight, which will allow the quickest access to your PPR. 

 

Pay by Paper Check

Paying Electronically (Electronic Check, Wire Transfer, etc.) 

If your Accounts Payable Department will be submitting payment electronically, please work with them to ensure that the order number found on the invoice is included with the electronic payment. If you are not able to include the order number within the electronic payment, please email a copy of the payment remittance to finance@ascp.org.

To help guarantee that your payment is applied to the correct order, send an email to PDInfo@ascp.org with: 

  • the date the electronic payment was sent 
  • the name that appears as the sender 
  • tracking details
  • any other identifying information.

Failure to follow the procedures as noted above will result in significant processing delays, during which time you will not have access to PPR data. Faxed payments and purchase orders are not accepted.
