ABIM maintenance of certification 2014: Navigating the challenges to find opportunities for success

Abstract

The ABIM's mission is to enhance the quality of healthcare. This goal is met by certifying physicians who demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to deliver safe, quality patient care in the rapidly changing world of medical practice.5 This mission resonates also with that of gastroenterologists and with the AGA, and can be a practical and necessary component of our practice as we move into a value-based health care delivery world. All the partner stakeholders in health care delivery-physicians, ABIM, and the public-seek to ensure the safe care of patients and provide demonstrably high-quality gastroenterology and hepatology care. © 2014 by the AGA Institute.
