TRANSITION FROM
RECERTIFICATION TO MAINTENANCE OF
CERTIFICATION DAVID G. PIEPGRAS, MD
IMMEDIATE PAST CHAIRMAN
For the young specialist, completion
of postgraduate specialty training
remains a landmark that deserves
recognition as having achieved a
high level of expertise. As early
as 1908 the first specialty group,
the American Academy of Ophthalmology
and Otolaryngology, proposed a process
for assessing specialists in their
field. In 1917 the nationally recognized
Medical Specialty Board of Ophthalmology
was established. Otolaryngology
followed in 1924 with their program
of required training and certification.
Neurosurgery incorporated the ABNS
in 1940 with the broad aim to encourage
the study, to improve the practice,
to elevate the standards, to advance
the science, and to serve the cause
of public health.
