As a component of the Family Medicine Certification Process, ABFM charges an annual certification process fee that is due for each year of certification with the ABFM. This fee covers all ABFM activities included in Continuous Family Medicine Certification. The continuous nature of certification, coupled with this flat annual fee, facilitates the completion of all activities you need to meet your requirements, as well as utilization of additional activities as desired for learning and identification of knowledge gaps to drive selection of learning opportunities. This fee is in addition to the cost to participate in the session. You do not need to pay the Certification Process Fee in advance to earn credit for participation in the program.
