While diplomates will apply through the ABS, the examination will be administered through the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) every even-numbered year. In addition to ABS diplomates currently certified in general surgery, the ABS will also accept current diplomates from other ABMS surgical boards as applicants for certification.
