This study is supported by the US Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality and is the first phase of a nearly $7 million investment by the ABFM to make maintenance of certification (MOC) easier and more meaningful, to help physicians turn their electronic health record (EHR) data into useful information, and to support the Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS), meaningful use, and other reporting needs. The ABFM is the first board to sponsor a registry, and this is the first clinical registry to support MOC.
