Mayo Clinic will host a Maintenance of Certification Learning Session that will feature the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) 2016 Update in Gastroenterology knowledge module.

The primary purpose of the Learning Session is to facilitate completion of ABIM medical knowledge modules by board-certified internists and subspecialists of internal medicine in order to receive Maintenance of Certification credit. Learning Sessions are conducted in an interactive group setting with educational support, and are led by ABIM-certified physicians.

Participants who are enrolled in ABIM’s Maintenance of Certification program can order a copy of the 2016 Update in Gastroenterology from ABIM’s website, and transfer and submit the answers discussed during the Learning Session to ABIM for scoring. Participants will have access to a score report that confirms whether or not the module was completed successfully. Those who complete the module successfully will receive 10 points for completing a 30-question module toward ABIM’s Self-Evaluation of Medical Knowledge requirement for Maintenance of Certification. You must be enrolled in ABIM’s Maintenance of Certification program to submit completed medical knowledge modules for scoring, feedback reports, and eligibility to receive Maintenance of Certification points and AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™.

For additional information about the ABIM Maintenance of Certification program requirements, visit ABIM’s website, or call ABIM Customer Service, (800) 441-ABIM. To enroll in Maintenance of Certification go to your password-protected “Home Page” in the Physician Login section. Once enrolled, you will be able to order an ABIM medical knowledge module from your home page.

For those not enrolled in ABIM’s Maintenance of Certification program, the Learning Session provides an excellent opportunity to earn AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ directly from Mayo Clinic College of Medicine.
