Notice: Reporting of MOC Credit
Many specialty Boards will allow their diplomates to self-report the credit earned. However, the DCMA is required to report the MOC credit claimed for the following boards using the diplomate’s Board ID # and Date of Birth (month and day): Anesthesiology, Pathology, Surgery, Orthopaedic Surgery, and Thoracic Surgery. This information must be supplied accurately on the evaluation form to ensure credit can be reported.

The DCMA is unable to report MOC credit claimed for the following boards that no longer offer self-reporting at this time: Internal Medicine, Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery, and Pediatrics.

By claiming the MOC credit on the Evaluation form, you are giving the DCMA permission to use this information/data to report your participation to these Boards via the ACCME Program and Activity Reporting System (PARS).


ABOS MOC Recognition Statement
Successful completion of this CME activity, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the learner to earn credit toward the CME of the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery’s Maintenance of Certification program. It is the CME activity provider's responsibility to submit learner completion information to ACCME for the purpose of granting ABOS credit.
