[Earning and Redeeming CME](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/cme?hsLang=en#earning-and-redeeming-cme) # How are my CME/MOC credits calculated and submitted? CME credits are accumulated by the number of unique questions you answer. This number is determined by the overall number of questions within the question bank, but on average it takes about 20 - 25 questions to earn 1 CME hour/1 MOC point. Credits are calculated as questions are answered and you receive a passing percentage. The required percentage to pass is determined by each individual board. Please refer to the course description. Completed credits are submitted to the ACCME at the end of each activity. Please keep the email enclosing your certificate in the event that you need to provide justification of your hours. MOC Credit: Courses that are eligible for MOC with ABIM, ABPath and ABP will be submitted to PARS within 60 days of completion. PARS is the national data repository. Preventive Medicine MOC credit hours will be submitted to the ABPM board quarterly. All other CME credits (non-MOC) must be self-reported. Please consult each specific board’s website for reporting instructions. - [Getting Started with BoardVitals](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/getting-started-with-boardvitals?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Getting Started](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/getting-started-with-boardvitals?hsLang=en#getting-started) - [Product Features and Tutorials](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/product-features-and-tutorials?hsLang=en#main-content) - [FAQs](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/product-features-and-tutorials?hsLang=en#faqs) - [Quiz Types](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/product-features-and-tutorials?hsLang=en#quiz-types) - [Quiz Features](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/product-features-and-tutorials?hsLang=en#quiz-features) - [Question Features](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/product-features-and-tutorials?hsLang=en#question-features) - [Performance and Scores](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/product-features-and-tutorials?hsLang=en#performance-and-scores) - [Frequently Asked Questions](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=en) - [Purchasing, Subscriptions, and Packages](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/purchasing-subscriptions-and-packages?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Purchasing](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/purchasing-subscriptions-and-packages?hsLang=en#purchasing) - [Subscriptions](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/purchasing-subscriptions-and-packages?hsLang=en#subscriptions) - [CME](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/cme?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Earning and Redeeming CME](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/cme?hsLang=en#earning-and-redeeming-cme) - [CE for Nurses](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/cme?hsLang=en#ce-for-nurses) - [CME FAQs](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/cme?hsLang=en#cme-faqs) - [Tech Support](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/tech-support?hsLang=en) - [Mobile App FAQs](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/mobile-app-faqs?hsLang=en) - [BoardVitals Content](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/boardvitals-content?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Content FAQs](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/boardvitals-content?hsLang=en#content-faqs) - [Nursing](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/boardvitals-content?hsLang=en#nursing) - [Medical Specialties](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/boardvitals-content?hsLang=en#medical-specialties) - [Allied Health](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/boardvitals-content?hsLang=en#allied-health) - [USMLE](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/boardvitals-content?hsLang=en#usmle) - [About BoardVitals](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/about-boardvitals?hsLang=en#main-content) - [What is BoardVitals?](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/about-boardvitals?hsLang=en#what-is-boardvitals) - [Contact BoardVitals](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/contact-boardvitals?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Contact Us](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/contact-boardvitals?hsLang=en#contact-us) - [BoardVitals for Institutions](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/boardvitals-for-institutions?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Institutional Users FAQs](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/boardvitals-for-institutions?hsLang=en#institutional-users-faqs) - [Students and General Use](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/boardvitals-for-institutions?hsLang=en#students-and-general-use) - [Reporting and Performance](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/boardvitals-for-institutions?hsLang=en#reporting-and-performance) - [Creating and Sending Exams](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/boardvitals-for-institutions?hsLang=en#creating-and-sending-exams) - [Administrators and Instructors](http://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge/boardvitals-for-institutions?hsLang=en#administrators-and-instructors) - Board Review - [Initial Certification](https://www.boardvitals.com/medical-board-reviews) - [Recertification](https://www.boardvitals.com/moc-recertification-exams-prep) - [CME](https://www.boardvitals.com/cme) - [Nursing](https://www.boardvitals.com/nursing) - [Medical Students](https://www.boardvitals.com/medical-students) - More Specialties - [Allied Health](https://www.boardvitals.com/allied-health) - [Dental](https://www.boardvitals.com/dental) - [Naturopathic](https://www.boardvitals.com/naturopathic) - [Pharmacy](https://www.boardvitals.com/pharmacy) - [Podiatry](https://www.boardvitals.com/podiatry) - [Physician Assistants](https://www.boardvitals.com/pance-board-review-questions) - [Blog](https://www.boardvitals.com/blog/) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://info.boardvitals.com/hs-fs/hubfs/BoardVitals%20Logos/logo-boardvitals-160x50.png?width=76&height=24&name=logo-boardvitals-160x50.png "Chill listening crop-3")](https://info.boardvitals.com/knowledge?hsLang=en) BoardVitals Help Center Copyright © 2026, BoardVitals
