How does a module work?
A physician selects a topic from the list of available modules at http://moc.acog.org. Once selected, the physician will be asked to review up to ten charts of patients they have managed with a specific condition covered in the chosen topic. These patients can be from their own practice or from an associate’s or group practice, but the physician must have participated in a significant portion of the care of this patient. There will also be approximately two to four key references, as well as three to four key points, addressing the management of the condition. Next, the physician will be asked a series of questions about patient management in a yes/no format. Finally, the physician will be asked to attest that they reviewed the required number of patient charts/records and that they completed the module. This is known as Phase I of Part IV of MOC, “The Road to Maintaining Excellence.” Six months after submitting Phase I of a module, you will again be asked to complete Phase II for that
