The American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery (ABOS) is a private, voluntary, nonprofit, autonomous organization founded in 1934. It operates to protect the public and the medical profession by establishing educational standards for orthopaedic residents and by evaluating the qualifications and competence of orthopaedic surgeons. It reviews credentials and practices of voluntary candidates and issues certificates as appropriate, and it sets minimum educational requirements for the specialty. The board promotes graduate medical education and continuing medical education, and it assists in evaluating educational facilities and programs in collaboration with the ACGME's Review Committee. Based in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, ABOS belongs to the Hospitals and Health Care sector and maintains a small staff. A notable development in its recent history is a 2023 collaboration with the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons to link ABOS Part I examination standards to AAOS Orthopaedic In-Training Examination scoring, reflecting closer alignment with broader professional standards.
