Neuromuscular Medicine Re-Entry Examination

The Neuromuscular Medicine Article-Based Continuing Certification pathway, or NMM ABCC, provides eligible diplomates with an online, article-based alternative to completing the traditional high-stakes NMM examination.

The Neuromuscular Medicine Re-Entry Examination provides a pathway to regain certification if it expires because you did not meet the NMM ABCC performance standard.

You may apply for the Neuromuscular Medicine Re-Entry Examination if:

• Your certification has expired.
• ABPMR has notified you that you are not expected to meet the NMM ABCC performance standard.

The examination is offered once a year, typically in Spring. Passing satisfies the assessment requirement for your five-year continuing certification cycle. If you pass by year 5 of your current cycle and remain current with your PM&R continuing certification requirements, your certification will continue for another five-year cycle.

If your certification has expired, passing the Re-Entry Examination will reinstate it for a new five-year cycle.

NMM ABCC is not available as a re-entry pathway.
