New Opportunities

Healthcare reform has created extensive opportunities for physician leaders, and becoming board certified in administrative medicine is an excellent way to distinguish yourself and be recognized for your unique insight into the business of medicine.

If you are a physician who is in the business of healthcare management, governance, and administration, or if you have administrative responsibilities in a clinical practice, you may be eligible to pursue board certification through the American Board of Administrative MedicineSM (ABAM), a Member Board of the American Board of Physician Specialties®.

The American Board of Administrative MedicineSM was created to help physicians who have a solid background in both business and medicine receive the recognition they deserve. Eligible candidates must have either:

A master’s degree in business administration, medical management, or health administration.

At least 5 years of cumulative experience in an administrative position. This includes further training in management-related functions, and requires the completion of an ABAM assessment form from each previous employer as well as documentation of specific coursework and training.

Complete eligibility requirements, exam description, schedule and fees are available at www.abamus.org.

We Mean Business

Commitment That Shows

As the healthcare environment continues to evolve, there is a growing need for physician leaders who have insight into clinical practice as well as a deep understanding of medical management. Board certification from the American Board of Administrative Medicine provides demonstrable evidence of expertise and commitment to the specialty.

ABAM certification recognizes qualified physicians who understand what it takes to manage the business side of medicine. From physicians who manage their individual practices to those who have assumed leadership positions in hospital groups and other healthcare organizations, this unique skill set sets administrative medicine physicians apart.
