The American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) recognizes that physicians without a primary American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) certification are ineligible to take the American Board of Preventive Medicine (ABPM) exam in addiction medicine. ASAM, therefore, is working to find a way for physicians to become eligible for their primary ABMS certification through preventive medicine residency training. Once physicians get the preventive medicine certification, they would meet a key eligibility requirement to take the addiction medicine exam until such time that an addiction medicine fellowship would also be mandatory.
This survey is intended to inform ASAM’s efforts while measuring the level of potential interest among ASAM members and other physicians in pursuing such a pathway.
