When does our pediatric boards exam expire

[Rebecca Meyer]

Hi Everyone,

I feel like an idiot, but just wondering if anyone knows when our pediatrics boards "expire."  Or do they expire?  I thought we had to retake in 10 years.  Just have to fill it out for a job.  

Thanks,

Rebecca

Yes we have 10 years to complete all the gen Peds recertification requirements. However, we have 5 years to complete MOC 1, 2, and 4 which means for most of us, we have to finish this by 2019. MOC 3 (which used to be the exam) is due every 10 years but the good thing is the exam is gone and it will be take home questions for us. Hope this helps! It’s all spelled out individually on the ABP website.
