Dr. Aaron Goodman, who started a petition that gathered over 20,000 signatures to end the MOC back in July 2023, found himself suddenly reported as NOT CERTIFIED by the ABIM in the specialty he practices and teaches (hematology).

The ABIM advised that unless he pays these fees, he will be deemed “not certified,” which threatens his ability to see patients at his own institution.
