Register a CME Activity

Through the ABIM MOC Assessment Recognition Program, ABIM and the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) have collaborated to simplify the integration of Maintenance of Certification (MOC) and accredited CME.

The collaboration continues to expand the number and diversity of accredited CME activities that offer ABIM MOC points, and it streamlines the process for registering CME activities for ABIM MOC recognition.

 

To register a CME Activity for MOC points

Submit a QI/PI Project

Approval for activities offering AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™

Accredited providers should register Practice Assessment MOC activities in ACCME's Program and Activity Reporting System (PARS).

ABIM Approved Quality Improvement (AQI) Program

The AQI program is the process through which ABIM recognizes externally developed quality improvement activities that physicians are doing in practice.

ABIM welcomes proposals from sponsors that may include medical specialty societies, hospitals or departments within hospitals, medical groups, clinics or other health-related organizations that wish to approve a single activity.

AQI applications are peer-reviewed by one or more members of the relevant ABIM Specialty Board. Email mocprograms@abim.org for upcoming application submission deadlines.
