Supporting Your Organization in Providing Quality Health Care

Everyone deserves the best health care possible. Like you, ABMS is focused on improving the health of patients and how care is delivered.

We believe the best care is provided by physicians who are ABMS Member Board certified. Participation by physicians and specialists in an ABMS Member Board certification program has a positive impact on patient care, improves outcomes, and serves as an important tool for patients, health care organizations, and physicians.

How Certification Benefits Health Systems

Physicians and specialists who achieve ABMS Member Board certification and meet the requirements for continuing certification contribute to an environment of professionalism and a culture of employee retention. Having ABMS board certified physicians and specialists on your staff or as members helps distinguish your organization from others. It demonstrates to consumers that your organization attracts only the most skilled and experienced health care professionals.
