Each monthly edition of FP Essentials is approved for up to 5 AAFP Prescribed credits.
You have 2 years from the date of publication (each edition is published on or near the 15th of the month) to complete each quiz online. NOTE: You will receive CME credit for the year in which each quiz is completed online.
The American Academy of Family Physicians maintains a database of all FP Essentials subscriber credits. FP Essentials quizzes must be completed online. AAFP members will have their credits automatically posted to their Academy CME transcript.
FP Essentials uses a 9-year curriculum divided into three 3-year curriculum cycles. The overall distribution of topics is matched to that on the American Board of Family Medicine Certification exams.
Once a curriculum cycle is completed, a topic maybe repeated in the next cycle, but clinical information is new each time a topic is published.
FP Essentials is a great way to stay prepared for the ABFM Certification exam. Editions follow a three-year clinical topic cycle designed to complement the exam format. View additional AAFP board certification CME.
