Annual Meeting Continuing Education Transcripts

Once you have successfully claimed CME credits for a session you will be taken to this screen that allows you to see/ track which sessions you have:• added (attended)• claimed CME• earned ABIM MOC points

We will come back to this page later!


Take MOC Evaluation Button

Once you have successfully claimed CME credits for a session offering ABIM MOC points you will see that the orange notice of MOC points has turned into a green “Take MOC Evaluation to claim XX MOC points” button.

If you are ready to take the MOC evaluation click this button!


MOC Submission Form

• The first time and only the first time you push the button to take the MOC evaluation you will be taken to this form which is required before you can take a MOC evaluation.

• This data is required as it is needed for AASLD to be able to report your completed MOC activities to the ABIM (or ABP for Postgraduate Course).

• More on the form next…


MOC Submission Form

• It appears you must complete both the ABIM and ABP boxes, but you only need to (and only should) complete the one box that applies to you. You can move on once you give an ABIM –or– ABP number.

• If you can’t remember your ABIM or ABP ID use the link we provide to access the ABIM and ABP look-up webpages.

• If you are not an ABIM or ABP Diplomate but want to take the MOC evaluations, please put 999999 into the ABIM number field. But note that AASLD only reports to ABIM and ABP.

MOC Session Evaluation

• Name of Session• Date of Session• Question X of X (e.g. 1 of 5)• Title of Talk • Speaker’s Name • Question:

• may or may not include a case• multiple-choice, single best answer• usually 4-5 answer options


MOC Session Evaluation

• Sessions with multiple speakers have multiple questions.

• Answer each question and hit “Confirm Response.”

• On the final question you will get a pop-up box and need to hit the “OK” button to submit/ score your quiz.


Red button: “Retake MOC Evaluation” Scored less than 70% = Fail

Green outlined box: “MOC Points Claimed” and green button: “Review Rationale”

Scored 70% or higher = Pass

Once you hit “OK” to score your MOC evaluation you will be taken to the transcripts page where you will see either:


Retake MOC Evaluation

• In a “Retake” now inside the evaluation the correct option is highlighted in green and includes the answer rationale and references.

• If you submitted an incorrect option that option is highlighted in orange.

• Re-answer each (incorrect) question and hit “Confirm Response.”


MOC Points Claimed

• Once you score 70% or higher you will have successfully completed that MOC evaluation.

• For that session you will see:• “MOC points claimed” in green outlined box. • “Review Rationale” as a green button. • MOC points earned shown in green outlined

box for that session under CME Credits.• On transcript table under “MOC Earned”

column you will see how many MOC points earned. But if you went to competing sessions and met the daily max of CME with those competing sessions you may show/ receive less MOC than total available for that session – see next slides.


Add Sessions

• If you want to add another session you will now see that the session you already evaluated is highlighted in green and the “Add” button is missing so you don’t accidentally try to add again.

• Click “Add” on other sessions you attended and repeat steps shown previously for the “Cholestatic and Autoimmune Liver Diseases SIG.”


Transcript & Calculations

• As you add sessions the CME and MOC earned will add up in the “Total Annual Meeting Credit Hours” Table –look at the “CME Earned” and “MOC Earned” columns for your total.

• Note that ticketed sessions are included in the calculations (i.e. Postgraduate Course). So if you try to claim credits for those sessions and the annual meeting, you will receive up to the daily max possible per day which may impact your ability to earn a max amount of MOC points.


Common “Errors” – Daily MaxIf you try to claim CME for ticketed sessions Friday and Saturday and claim for annual meeting sessions at the same time you can only claim the max CME/MOC for that day. In example below my individual sessions claimed would give me 4 CME/4 MOC points but because I claimed CME for a ticketed session at a competing time, I had 0.25 deducted from my annual meeting CME/MOC total. Adjust the CME you’re claiming for the ticketed course to get full CME/MOC for annual meeting. See note in pop-up box and at the bottom of the transcript table.

Claimed 4 CME & 4 MOC

Receiving 3.75 CME

& 3.75 MOC


Common “Errors” – Time ConflictIf sessions occur at same time you will get notice in the “Time conflicts” column and you can either remove one of the sessions or adjust the start and end times (see next slide).


Changing Time ConflictsAfter CME has been claimed you can click on the session to go back in and adjust the start

and/or end times which will change the credit amount received.


CME Earned Total in Transcript = CME Total on CME CertificateOnce you have finished adding in and completing evaluations for all sessions you attended for the annual meeting, you can click

to email (to yourself) or print your CME Certificate. The total amount on your transcript table will populate on the certificate.Note: You will have separate certificates for ticketed courses (Basic Science Symposium, Postgraduate Course, ILTS TransplantCourse and/or ASGE Endoscopy Course) and the CME for those courses doesn’t add up into the annual meeting certificate.
