Register & Schedule
To register for the Pediatric Emergency Medicine MOC Examination, ABEM candidates must complete the current year’s MOC Examination registration form, which is available from the ABEM office. The following must be submitted for registration to be complete:
- Completed and signed current-year registration form
- Additional items included in the materials or referred to in the registration form instructions, if applicable
- Registration fee and examination fee in U.S. funds
The registration fee is an administrative fee that covers the cost of reviewing and authorizing the exam registration and submitting that authorization to the board administering the exam, and cannot be refunded.
By signing the application form, physicians give ABEM permission to verify information submitted.
ABEM emails a receipt when the registration and examination fees are received, and a notification when the examination authorization has been sent to the administering board.
Physicians will receive information about how to schedule an appointment to take the examination.
Content & Results
The Pediatric Emergency Medicine MOC Examination is a four-hour, computer-based, multiple choice question examination, consisting of approximately 200 questions. The exam is delivered in two timed sections, with each section two hours in length. There are no scheduled breaks during the examination, but candidates may take breaks. However, the examination clock will continue to run.
The exam outline is available on the ABP website.
ABEM sends candidates the results of their examination in writing. Results are also posted online.
