	Beginning in 2006, all physicians who are newly certified will be required to meet the new ABPS Standards for Recertification.&nbsp; See <b>ABPS Standards for Recertification</b>. <a href="/downloads/ABPS_re-cert_brochure.pdf" target="_blank">Click here</a> to download a PDF copy of the brochure.&nbsp; Physicians who were initially certified prior to 2006 will not have to meet the new recertification requirements until after their next recertification.</p>
<p>
	ABPS will accept Diplomates certified by the Boards that are part of The American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) or the Association Bureau of Osteopathic Specialists (AOABOS) as candidates for recertification with ABPS in any specialty in which ABPS currently certifies physicians.&nbsp; <a href="/recertification-details">Click here for full details.</a></p>
<p>
	<b>Please note that in addition to the recertification requirements listed, all applicants due for recertification in 2012 or later will be required to show proof of completion of an AAPS-approved course in Medical Ethics.</b>&nbsp; (To assist physicians in meeting this requirement, AAPS will periodically schedule for its members a one-day course in Medical Ethics.)&nbsp; CMEs earned for attending the medical ethics course may also be applied to meeting the CME recertification requirements.</p>
<p>
	The Board recommends that all applicants keep a copy of all application materials sent to ABPS.</p>

<p>
	The American Board of Physician Specialties (ABPS), the official certifying body of the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc. (AAPS), offers written recertification examinations twice a year.&nbsp; Included among the specialties for which examinations are offered are those for the Board of Certification in Emergency Medicine.&nbsp; ABPS offers the recertification examinations in computer-based testing centers in the US and Canada twice yearly, once during May and once during November.</p>
<p>
	The recertification examination process in Emergency Medicine requires candidates to pass only a written examination.</p>
<p>
