FAQs

PARS will send a rejection report when learners are rejected by the board. The email will contain an error message explaining what caused the rejection (for example the learner has already earned the maximum amount of points for the activity). Providers can also see the reason for rejection by hovering over the Rejected status in the PARS interface.

Certain boards (ABA and ABP) will check and enforce granting credit to a diplomate for each unique activity (ACCME Activity ID) once per day (date completed). These implementations are in place to reduce the incidence of accidental duplicate MOC credit reported to the boards with a few exceptions:

• For ABP: This excludes credit for Internet Searching and Learning and Journal-based CME activities. Learners can be reported more than once with the same completion date for this activity type.
• For ABA: If the activity offers both CME and CME which counts for Patient Safety, a max of two participation records for the unique activity be allow diplomate per day – one record including the amount of CME + Patient Safety earned, and (if applicable) one record including the remainder of the CME earned. See the tutorial above for more information regarding multi-credit type reporting.
