ABFM Guidelines for Professionalism, Licensure, and Personal Conduct 

06-25-2018 22:11

The ABFM Credentials Committee is tasked with reviewing appeals of revocation of board certification. Many graduating residents and faculty have never actually read nor received formal instruction on the ABFM Guidelines for Professionalism, Licensure, and Personal Conduct as it's often considered "fine print". These requirements are important for residents and faculty to know however, and are not necessarily intuitive. State licensing boards, FSMB, ABMS, and ABFM processes impacting licensure and certification status are also discussed.

This powerpoint is meant to be used as an "off-the-shelf" resource for residencies' Professionalism and Health Systems Management curriculum, which can be presented in a 1 hour lecture period. Special attention should be paid to the Speaker notes attached to each slide which provides background information, as well as a pre/ post test at the end of the slide-set which can be used to engage learners prior to the presentation and/or test knowledge acquisition.

Upon completion of this session, participants should be able to: 1.Identify common causes of state license restrictions and loss of board certification 2. Understand the connections between licensing and certifying authorities 3. How to best respond to patient complaints to state medical licensing boards, how to approach hearings, understand consent agreements, and know important actions to best protect ABFM certification.
