• Phone Survey - Patients and peers of the candidate rate the doctor on professionalism and communication skills via an automated phone survey.
• Results - Once a sufficient number of surveys have been completed, the candidate will receive a confidential and anonymous aggregate report of the results and a national rating for comparison. There is no pass/fail standard for the surveys, simply complete or incomplete.
• Quality Improvement Plan - After reviewing the results, the candidate must submit a Quality Improvement Plan in order to complete this component of the Recertification/MOC© process.

If the PAPPA module is not completed, the candidate will not receive a certificate or notification of the Final Examination results.
