Available to physicians with relevant training and significant leadership and management responsibilities in a wide variety of practice settings, including community practice, hospitals, large medical groups, integrated health systems, academic departments and programs, and health policy organizations.

The American Board of Family Medicine will serve as one of the co-sponsoring boards of a new subspecialty in Health Care Administration, Leadership, and Management (HALM). A new Certificate of Added Qualifications (CAQ) will be available to physicians with relevant training and significant leadership and management responsibilities in a wide variety of practice settings, including community practice, hospitals, large medical groups, integrated health systems, academic departments and programs, and health policy organizations.

“We are pleased to be a co-sponsor of this new CAQ,” said ABFM President and CEO Warren Newton, MD, MPH. “In addition to the recognition and furthering of important administrative skills, this CAQ offers the potential to position family physicians as leaders in different health care delivery systems. It will offer relevant, role-specific opportunities for family physician leaders to tailor their Family Medicine Continuing Certification experience.”
