Introducing CAP

June 25, 2018

CAP is a new Continuous Assessment Program that will replace ABO’s 10-year recertification exam and MOC program beginning in 2019. Diplomates can now maintain their board certification without the stress and expense of a high stakes exam every 10 years, yet still be confident that they are keeping up with advancements in the profession while maintaining their commitment to continuous learning and excellent patient care.
