ABMS Data Now Available!

Now Offering ABMS Verification!

In response to requests from a number of our member boards, the Federation of State Medical
Boards is pleased to announce we will begin distributing American Board of Medical
Specialties (ABMS) certification data and National Provider Identification (NPI) numbers on all
queries provided by the Physician Data Center (PDC).
Beginning January 22, 2015, the ABMS certification data will be included on all PDC profiles as
a result of a recent data sharing agreement with ABMS. Member boards will not be required to
take any action to begin taking advantage of these report enhancements.
We hope the addition of these data elements will prove to be a valuable resource in your
regulatory operations. As always, these services are provided to our member boards at no cost.
For questions or feedback, please contact the Physician Data Center at (817) 868-4010 or via
email at pdccustomercare@fsmb.org.
Sincerely,
David Hooper
Senior Director of Marketing
