Certification Maintenance
Addiction medicine specialists must maintain certification by meeting educational requirements for the assessment of continuing competencies to ensure the highest standards of care.
Overview
Once certified, addiction medicine specialists must maintain certification by meeting educational requirements for the assessment of continuing competencies through a program called Maintenance of Certification (MOC), Continuing Certification Program (CCP) or Osteopathic Continuous Certification (OCC). The purpose of MOC/CCP/OCC is to ensure that addiction specialists adhere to the highest standards in medicine and pursue excellence in all areas of care and practice improvement.
ASAM is not a certifying board. Individuals are encouraged to contact their respective boards for the most up-to-date information on MOC requirements (e.g., visit the ABPM physician portal for information on their requirements).
