ABFM currently offers SAMs covering asthma, care of the vulnerable elderly, cerebrovascular disease, early childhood illness, coronary artery disease, depression, diabetes, health behavior, heart failure, hypertension, maternity care, mental health in the community, pain management, preventive care, and well child care. A SAM covering hospital medicine will be available in September.
