The American Board of Allergy and Immunology

The American Board of Allergy and Immunology The ABAI was established in 1971 as one of the 24 medical specialty boards (Member Boards) that make up the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS)

The ABAI was established in 1971 as a Conjoint Board of the ABIM and ABP. The internal medicine subspecialty existed from 1936-1971 and the pediatric subspecialty existed from 1944-1971. The ABAI is committed to working closely with its parent boards to maintain the highest educational and clinical standards in the specialty of allergy/immunology. Beginning in 1989, new ABAI Diplomates receive cer

tificates valid for ten years. Time unlimited certificates were issued prior to October 1, 1989. As of 2009, ABAI transitioned from recertification to a continuous Maintenance of Certification program in accordance with ABMS MOC® guidelines. MOC is a voluntary process for time-unlimited certificate holders. Medical specialty certification in the United States is a voluntary process that demonstrates a physician's exceptional expertise in a particular specialty of medical practice. The ABAI currently has 5,440 Diplomates who are board-certified in Allergy and Immunology.
