The American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) has launched a pilot pathway to certification for international medical graduates (IMGs) who have completed residency abroad. This new option allows for certification after completing a specialty outside of the US. Eligible participants must complete at least three years of accredited residence abroad. The program is aimed at doctors who received medical education in other countries. The goal is to facilitate their entry into practice in the USA through verified qualifications. The pilot program was recently announced by MedPage Today.
