*ABEM has contracted with the AMA to provide the credits as a free benefit to ABEM-certified physicians. To receive the credits, you need to agree to ABEM sharing your contact information with the AMA. Otherwise, the cost is $30 members / $75 non-members). Obtaining the no-cost AMA credit through ABEM is available for requirements completed in 2018 forward. To obtain credit for requirements completed in previous years, physicians must apply directly to the AMA and pay the required fee. For more information refer to the CME for Certification or Passing Examination FAQs.
**Except the Resuscitation Module, which is for 6 credits.
