Leslie MD, VP of Research $13,272; Suzanne K Woods MD, Exec VP Credentialing and Initial Certification $28,484; Keith J Mann, VP of Continuing Certification $2,251. During the tax year, the Organization paid severance compensation of $29,077 to Judy Schaechter former CEO in connection with the individual's separation from employment. No additional severance obligations remained outstanding as of year-end. Form 990, Part I, Line 1 The mission of the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) is certifying pediatricians who meet standards of excellence and are committed to continuous learning and improvement. In 2024, the ABP certified 3,711 diplomates in General Pediatrics and 2,546 diplomates in one of 15 pediatric subspecialties. The ABP had approximately 92,500 diplomates enrolled in Continuing Certification, with these board-certified physicians demonstrating meaningful contributions to improving health and health care for children. Form 990, Part III, Line 1 The mission of the American Board of Pediatrics is certifying pediatricians who meet standards of excellence and are committed to continuous learning and improvement. Form 990, Part III, Line 4a Initial certification in general pediatrics; board certification is a voluntary process that goes above and beyond state licensing requirements for practicing medicine. It is an ongoing commitment by a physician to continually update their knowledge in a medical specialty, like pediatrics. Since it began certifying pediatricians in 1933 through December 31, 2025, the ABP has certified 148,427 pediatricians in both general and subspecialty pediatrics. Of the 4,140 physicians who took the general pediatrics certification exam in October 2025 ,82.2% percent passed. To become certified, a physician must complete an accredited residency training program in pediatrics. The director of that training program must verify that the physician is competent in all areas of practice, and then the physician can take the initial certifying exam. In addition, before a physician can take the initial certifying examination he/she must also hold a valid, unrestricted license to practice medicine. Once they have passed the initial examination, they are certified by the ABP. (See 4c below for how certification is maintained.) Form 990, Part III, Line 4b Initial Certification in pediatric subspecialties: After residency, some pediatricians also go on to complete further accredited training in pediatric subspecialty fellowship programs. In addition to developing clinical expertise in their chosen subspecialty, these subspecialists participate in core curriculum in scholarly activities and provide a scholarly work product that meets the ABP requirements in order to be eligible for the initial certification in their field. The fellowship training director must verify that the physician is competent in all areas of practice within the subspecialty and has met the requirements for professionalism including maintaining a valid unrestricted medical license before the diplomate is allowed to take the initial certifying examination. Once they have passed the initial examination, they are certified as a subspecialist by the ABP. The ABP offers certification in these 15 subspecialties: Adolescent Medicine; Cardiology; Child Abuse Pediatrics; Critical Care Medicine, Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics; Emergency Medicine; Endocrinology; Gastroenterology; Hematology-Oncology; Hospital-Medicine; Infectious Diseases; Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine; Nephrology; Pulmonology; and Rheumatology. Certification are awarded in conjunction with other specialty boards in the areas of: Hospice and Palliative Medicine; Medical Toxicology; Pediatric Transplant Hepatology; Sleep Medicine; and Sports Medicine. The number of physicians taking the exams varies, depending on the subspecialty. Of the 1,495 physicians who took the subspecialty examinations in fiscal year 2025, 87.7% percent passed. Form 990, Part III, Line 4c Continuing Certification: After their initial certification, pediatricians are enrolled in the Continuing Certification Program (formerly Maintenance of Certification (MOC) Program) which consists of four parts: 1) General Standards, 2) Professional Standing and Conduct, 3) Lifelong Learning, and 4) Improving Health and Health Care. Diplomates of the American Board of Pediatrics must hold an unrestricted medical license to maintain certification. Continuing Certification requires that pediatricians take regular examinations to assess their knowledge and medical judgement. Quality Improvement (QI) activities for Continuing Certification are designed to encourage pediatricians to assess the quality of their care and adopt more efficient and effective ways to care for children. In fiscal year 2025, over 11,723 external activities were approved for Continuing Certification Credit, including the renewal and/or approval of 10 new lifelong learning and self-assessment modules,1 new online performance improvement modules (PIMS), 236 QI projects from large teams (more than 10 physicians), and 238 Small Group QI projects (10 or fewer physicians). In addition, 3,065 Basic and Advanced Life Support projects were approved for Part II Continuing Certification Credit, and 1,216 Patient-Centered Medical Home projects were approved for Part IV Continuing Certification Credit. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The Assistant Controller prepares the Form 990, and both the Controller and CFO perform a detail review of the completed return. The return is then reviewed by outside tax counsel for compliance. After this review and prior to filing, a complete copy of the Form 990 is emailed to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors are asked to review the form and to forward any comments, questions, or concerns to the CFO so that they can be addressed prior to filing the return. The final filed copy of the return is uploaded to a secure web portal where the full board and finance committee members can view the return. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c The American Board of Pediatrics has a Conflict-of-Interest Policy covering its directors, committee appointees, officers and key employees who must review the policy annually and disclose any potential conflict of interest (COI) via a signed form. The ABP internal COI staff and the Board Conflict of Interest Committee reviews and manages all conflict-of-interest issues. Conflicts of appointees and employees attending meetings are disclosed in the meeting agenda materials and those with conflicts do not participate in the voting on any issue where they may have a conflict of interest. The ABP also maintains a conflict-of-interest policy covering employees, who are required to disclose any actual or perceived conflicts of interest on an annual basis via a signed statement. These statements are reviewed by staff and elevated to the CEO and the COI Committee if needed. Individuals are recused from any decision-making issues where a conflict may exist. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 In 1988, the ABP began engaging an independent compensation and benefits consulting firm to assist in determining annual compensation for all ABP staff, including the President. The compensation strategy designed for the ABP emphasizes pay for performance and is based upon the systematic slotting of each ABP staff position on a grade scale. Pay for each grade is then determined by comparing each of the positions to a comparable position in the appropriate marketplace i.e., local, regional, or national depending on the job's responsibilities and its hierarchy within the organization. A range is created around each job grade and performance dictates how quickly staff advance through each grade. The full board of directors reviews the President's performance and provides written feedback to the consultant. The consultant makes a formal presentation to the Executive Committee each year, during which the compensation strategy, benchmarks, and salary recommendations are discussed. Following that presentation, the consultant meets with the executive committee in a closed session, without staff present, to discuss the results of the President's performance review, the salary benchmarks for the ABP President and physician Vice Presidents along with his recommendations for salary adjustments for these positions. The committee determines whether to approve the proposed changes. These decisions are recorded in the minutes of the meeting, which are then forwarded to the CFO for implementation.
