Maintenance of Certification
What is Maintenance of Certification?
Beginning in 2002, all American Board of Otolaryngology (ABOto) diplomates must participate in Maintenance of Certification, (MOC). The MOC program is a ten year cycle which involves annual updates on the individual diplomate, self-assessment, evaluation of performance in practice, and an examination the diplomate must pass to renew his/her certificate.
