• What types of CME credits are accepted for ABAI MOC?

    ABAI accepts AMA PRA Category 1TM Credit(s) in Allergy/Immunology-related activities. The relevance of the activity is determined by the title printed on the certificate. CME activities outside the field of Allergy/Immunology will be reviewed by ABAI and approved on a case-by-case basis. Activities such as a course on wilderness medicine, for instance, will likely not be approved.

  • How do I submit proof of my CME credits?

    Copies of CME certificates are no longer required to be uploaded, faxed, or e-mailed to ABAI. Starting in January of 2016, diplomates will be asked to log onto their ABAI Web Portal page and attest to completing 25 hours of CME credits in the previous year. Please note that for any past due CME requirements prior to 2015 ABAI still requires that diplomates submit documentation for these outstanding activities.

    The ABAI will continue to receive CME credits from the AAAAI, ACAAI, and other partner organizations on a quarterly basis.

  • Will ABAI actually check all of my CME credits?

    ABAI will audit the CME credits of approximately 10% of its diplomates annually. If you are selected for the audit process ABAI will request documentation of at least 25 CME credits completed in the previous calendar year.

  • If I don't get 25 CME credits one year but have 50 the next year, will the credits be averaged?

    The ABAI requires 25 CME credits per year in keeping with the character of a continuous learning process. If a Diplomate does not meet the CME requirement each year, they will be listed as "Not Meeting MOC Requirements" until such time that the requirement is completed. Diplomates should contact the office with any extenuating circumstances if the annual CME requirement cannot be completed.
