December’s the Deadline! Have you earned your 100 MOC points?
December 31st marks the end of the initial five-year deadline following the adoption of the American Board of Internal Medicine’s (ABIM) continuous Maintenance of Certification (MOC) program requiring Diplomates to earn 100 MOC points, including 20 in medical knowledge, every five years.
CME Outfitters can help you earn any outstanding MOC points you need to ensure you reach your 100 MOC point minimum by the end of December. Earning ABIM MOC points doesn’t have to be difficult or time-consuming. When you actively participate in CME activities, you are already meeting requirements towards MOC. ABIM MOC points are equivalent to the maximum number of AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM earned for a course.
CME activities are free and offer ABIM MOC on our website now.

To earn your ABIM MOC points for participating, learners must do 2 things:
- Participate in the pre-survey, any audience response questions, and the activity evaluation.
- Provide your ABIM 6-digit number and date of birth (MNM/DD) so we can submit your points
CME Outfitters will then submit your credit to the ABIM through their partnership with the ACCME. This is an ABIM requirement for CME providers to submit your points directly.
With new activities added every month, check back with CME Outfitters for additional courses offering ABIM MOC points to ensure you meet your 100 MOC point requirements every five years.
