The American Board of Preventive Medicine (ABPM) announced today that it is offering an additional administration of its Health Care Administration, Leadership, and Management (HALM) certification exam in 2025. Beginning in 2026, ABPM will only offer the HALM exam in even-numbered years.

ABPM diplomates who are currently certified in an ABPM specialty or subspecialty and meet the eligibility criteria may apply for the 2025 certification exam now through June 30, 2025.

Physicians who are certified by the American Board of Anesthesiology (ABA) or the American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM) must apply through their respective Board; physicians who are certified by an ABMS Member Board other than ABPM, ABA, or ABFM must apply through the American Board of Emergency Medicine (ABEM).
