Diplomate Recertification Reminder
 
Attention Diplomates! Recertify now and avoid delays! We recommend completing your recertification early in your cycle instead of waiting until the deadline to recertify. Diplomates are required to complete a minimum of 8 CME / CE credit hours of applicable continuing education every two years and remain current with all account balances.

Any member that has held Diplomate Status for five consecutive years after completing the HCQM Certification Exam will automatically be recognized as a Fellow of ABQAURP. Fellows may use the designation of FABQAURP in addition to their CHCQM designation to distinguish themselves among their peers.

To qualify for Fellowship, Diplomates must be current on their annual dues (due by January 1st each year) and recertification requirements (8 hours of CME/CE every two years). Diplomate records are evaluated annually in January to identify Diplomates that have achieved and/or maintained Fellowship status. Diplomates meeting the qualifications will automatically earn Fellowship status and a certificate will be mailed to each Fellow.
 
We value your continued membership. Please call (800) 998-6030 if you have any questions or need assistance.
