Last week, ABIM provided an update on these efforts and announced an official collaboration with ACCME that will expand the options available to physicians to receive MOC credit by enabling CME providers, like the ACC, to offer more lifelong learning CME-MOC options.

The ACC, along with other cardiology and internal medicine association stakeholders, has been diligent over the last two years in our efforts to encourage ABIM to expand MOC Part II options available to physicians and reduce redundancy with CME, as well as allow societies to more easily offer lifelong learning activities for MOC. This move is a direct result of these efforts and is a big step forward in our ongoing work to represent the needs of our members and to collaborate with the ABIM in their efforts to “ensure that ABIM and MOC evolve to better reflect the changing nature of medical practice.”

The ACC’s Education Team will be working with ABIM to clarify the changes over the coming weeks. This new process will not only leverage the increased flexibility as part of the College’s existing CME activities, but will also provide ways to efficiently report MOC Part II credit on behalf of our MOC-participating members. More details will be posted to the ACC’s online MOC hub at ACC.org/MOC as they are available.
