Certification and recertification
1Northwestern University Medical School, Deerfield, Illinois.
Abstract:
The American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology issues certificates for psychiatrists in general psychiatry, child and adolescent psychiatry, and added qualification in geriatric psychiatry. It will issue a certificate in added qualification in clinical neurophysiology in 1992. An application for a certificate in added qualification in addiction psychiatry is currently under review by the American Board of Medical Specialties. The American Psychiatric Association has requested that the ABPN consider forensic psychiatry for an added qualification. All new subspecialty certificates will have a ten year time limit. Beginning on October 1, 1994, all certificates will be time-limited. Time-limited certificates will lead to the requirement for recertification. Current requirements for certification are reviewed and strategies for planing for recertification are discussed.
