Dear Colleague,
A very good morning and warm summer greetings from sunny
If you have not seen this already this might be of some interest. This study examined the association between performance in the examination and quality of care (process measures). The results are interesting. The effects are seen in few of the measures examined and they are modest. Here is the paper from the Archives of internal Medicine.
Holmboe ES et al. Association Between Maintenance of Certification Examination Scores and Quality of Care for Medicare Beneficiaries. Arch Intern Med. 2008;168(13):1396-1403.
