LA-PMR

Keeping up with LA: Quarter 4 Articles Available for Selection

In an effort to help diplomates prepare for their 4th Quarter article-based questions, the ABPMR is providing the list of articles to choose from now. As a reminder, in this quarter, you choose the articles you want to be assessed on according to your interests and practice relevance. Questions for these articles will be available for answering only during the 4th quarter (October 1- December 31, 2024).

NEW: Brain Injury Medicine articles (LA-BIM) included

This year there are two LA-BIM-specific articles included for BIM certificate holders as well as available for LA-PM&R. For diplomates certified in both PM&R and BIM, you may reduce your reading load by selecting these articles for both assessments. Although the articles are the same, the questions will be different for each assessment.

Please note that most of these articles are available for viewing immediately. However, there are a small number of articles that can be viewed now only if you choose to pay the online (external publishing vendor) price. If you do not wish to pay for these article views prior to the start of the 4th quarter, they will be available to you at no charge beginning October 1, 2024.
