ABEM Continuing Certification Process
The purpose of continuing certification is to establish the highest standards of patient care and promote continuous learning and assessment among ABEM-certified physicians. The components of ABEM's continuing certification process include:
- MyEMCert Assessment Modules – Topic-specific modules that promote learning by incorporating Key Advances in Emergency Medicine and providing immediate answer rationales.
- Annual Fee Payment – Smaller, annual payments for certification instead of larger fees for each activity.
Upon meeting all continuing certification requirements, a physician’s certification will renew on the day following their current certification expiration date. During their next certification cycle, they will have new requirements. ABEM-Certified physicians can view their individual requirements and when they are due by signing into their ABEM Portal.
