Is Addiction Medicine a Recognized Specialty?
Yes, as of 2016 The American Board of Medical Specialties established Addiction Medicine as a subspecialty.
To become certified in Addiction Medicine, physicians must first complete a residency or fellowship in a primary specialty such as internal medicine, family medicine, or psychiatry. Then, they must complete additional training in Addiction Medicine and pass the board certification exam in Addiction Medicine.
The recognition of Addiction Medicine as a subspecialty reflects the growing recognition of addiction as a chronic medical condition that requires specialized care.
Addiction medicine specialists are trained to provide comprehensive, patient-centered care that addresses both the physical and psychological aspects of addiction.
Read What Your Colleagues Are Saying About The Pass Machine Addiction Medicine Board Review
"I was advised to purchase Beat The Boards! by my mentor, an Addiction Psychiatrist, who had already passed both Addiction Medicine and Psychiatry board exams with the help of this course. I felt the videos were the perfect length and the questions and syllabus were very helpful in my studies. I have advised my trainees to use this for the boards as well and they have been successful as well."
Jasmine Shell, MD, Augusta, GA
"I am so grateful for API and Dr. Jack! The Addiction Medicine board prep course was fantastic. I could not have passed the exam without it. I would recommend API to anyone who is preparing for the Addiction Medicine board exam!"
Radhika Chimata, MD,Downers Grove, IL
"I found this course to be very comprehensive. Watching the videos, doing the question blocks and then having the syllabus for review was helpful during my board prep. The videos are also the perfect length of time."
Jasmine Shell, MD, Augusta, GA
"Fantastic course! I recommend this course to anyone interested in becoming certified in Addiction Medicine. It is useful even if you don't plan on getting certified but have an interest in helping patients with substance use disorders."
Randolph Baca, MD, Albuquerque, NM
"I think everything about this course was very helpful to me. The video lectures the PDF notes, but even most importantly, I think the test questions which I used for the last few weeks daily before my board exam I think, really prepared my mind to get ready for the format of the test and I think all in all that this is an excellent aboard preparation tool. Thank you so much."
Joel Nunley, MD, Tulsa, OK
"I looked at other courses. However, this course seemed one stop place for lectures and questions with highest pass rate advertised. The lectures come in various media formats including a mobile app which turned out to be a great way to take the course on the go! I listened to the videos, read the pdf lectures, did the questions and repeated the missed questions until I got mostly right. And I passed! Questions may seem difficult but ultimately they will prepare you! This is the course to take if you want to pass on your first attempt!"
Seung Kim, MD, Raleigh, NC
"The course was very helpful for me to excel on the Addiction Medicine Board Exam. The question bank and the explanations were significantly close to the style of the Board questions. I highly recommended this course for everyone preparing for this Board exam."
Samir Rizk, MD, Knoxville, TN
"API was excellent choice of board exam review. I took the April 2021 Osteopathic Addiction Medicine Board Exam and passed with slight margin. The videos were much better quality and slides easier to review than ASAM's board review videos. Thank you API for helping me to pass my board exam on first try."
Christine Kuo, DO, Roseville, CA
"I received my addiction medicine exam results from ABPM today and i just want to let you know that I passed. I want to thank you and the faculty. Without your program I wouldn't have been able to do. I actually learned more from the lectures, aside from preparation for the exam."
Michael Solomon, MD, Atlanta, GA
"Took exam in October 2020 through ABPM pathway. Still waiting for the results. Course very well organized with excellent questions. Still a good source of information as I am continuing seeing people in D&A clinic. I hope being better prepared especially for my patients!!!"
Diana Cozma, MD, Philadelphia, PA
“I just found out that I passed the American Board of Addiction Medicine exam, and feel that the American Physician Institute course can take the credit for this. Once again, it offered a concise, time-efficient way to study for the exam, and in the most palatable format possible! The test wasn’t too difficult after taking the course, and I feel I was overall well prepared.”
Heidi Klingbeil, MD, South Orange, NJ
"The API course was a very valuable time saving and organizing tool to review a large volume of material. In my case, I allotted less time then ideal to this review. Had I not had the API materials, I would not have been able to manage the volume. Very well organized course. I passed."
Daniela Samoil, MD, Lake Oswego, OR
"My Addiction Medicine Board Review Course provided by American Physician Institute (API) was instrumental in helping me mount a recovery after failing an earlier board certification exam attempt. I needed a to make up a major gap in my board preparation which required several months of study and the API course helped me gauge the width and depth of the project. Presenters were very knowledgeable. Scope of the presentations was perfect. This was the most comprehensive of the four courses I used and the most beneficial. Please keep up the great work and thank your staff for their boundless support."
Dan Stuckey, MD, Katy, TX
“The best courses out there for the board exams. Indispensable when prepping for the boards and/or keeping up with your knowledge base.”

FAQs – The Pass Machine Addiction Medicine Board Review
Is The Pass Machine different from other board reviews?
Yes, in three main ways:
1. The Pass Machine board review is the most comprehensive option. More than just a Question Bank of practice questions, each course includes in-depth lectures in a familiar classroom setting presented by expert faculty. This means you get a topic-by-topic review of exactly what’s on the board exam in much greater detail than what you can get from QBank answer explanations.
2. Because the physician’s schedule is typically a hectic one, The Pass Machine is optimized for on-the-go review. Components such as the audio-only lecture option, iOS and Android app for mobile review, and offline access capability, and a fully illustrated board-mapped study guide make The Pass Machine review easy to incorporate at any point your daily routine.
3. The Triple Trust Guarantee not only gives you a full refund of your paid tuition* if you don’t pass the exam the first time after taking the course, but it also gives you an extra 10% and a free subscription renewal. This unprecedented guarantee serves to assure you of the confidence we have that The Pass Machine content is exceptional.
*Tuition is defined as the amount you paid for your base course, and does not include optional course add-ons, such as purchase of online access extensions, and/or the live course attendance option (where available). If any promotional items, such as gift cards, are included with your purchase, the value of that promotional item will be deducted from your tuition.
Who produces The Pass Machine Courses? Where do you get your faculty?

API conducts dozens of courses and trains thousands of physicians each year to pass their boards and stay up to date in their fields.

Do you provide board review for other medical specialties?
Yes! In fact, we provide preparation for dozens of other specialty and subspecialty board exams. Check out www.AmericanPhysician.com for the full list.
Is it likely that my employer will cover my tuition?
Because all The Pass Machine courses are approved for AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™, it is likely that your tuition will be reimbursed. You may be surprised at how many residency and fellowship training programs, group practices, and other employers pay for or reimburse you for such Category 1 educational activities. After all, it’s in everyone’s best interests to have you board certified. It really pays to ask your training director, medical director, or administrator if you are eligible because some training programs and employers do pay for board exam training. And, if you work for the Federal Government, American Physician Institute is a certified business in the CCR database and can accept government checks and credit cards.

Board Exam Results and the Triple Trust Guarantee
Is The Pass Machine Addiction Medicine review pass-guaranteed?
Yes, all full courses are pass-guaranteed, and backed by our Triple Trust Guarantee. At any time, you can view the Triple Trust Guarantee Terms & Conditions.
What does the Triple Trust Guarantee cover?
If you purchase a course with a “Triple Trust Guarantee” and fail the board exam for which this course is designed, API will issue a 100% refund of your paid tuition*, plus an additional 10%, plus free subscription renewal. The guarantee expires in the event the exam for which this course is designed is no longer offered by the certifying board.
* Tuition is defined as the amount you paid for your base course, and does not include optional course add-ons, such as purchase of online access extensions, and/or the live course attendance option (where available). If any promotional items, such as gift cards, are included with your purchase, the value of that promotional item will be deducted from your tuition.
The Triple Trust Guarantee sounds too good to be true—is it for real?
Yes, it’s completely real. Rest assured, API has always honored its guarantees and always will. The Triple Trust Guarantee is API’s way of demonstrating that it’s just as invested in your success as you are. After all, if you fail your board exam, API will pay a penalty. API will refund your course tuition in full, provide you with a bonus, and provide you with free subscription renewal. The guarantee ensures API doesn’t get paid for effort, only for passing results.
Does the Triple Trust Guarantee cover non-tuition course options and upgrades?
No. Course options and upgrades are non-tuition related. Therefore, these fees are not included in any guarantee-related refund payment made under the terms of the Triple Trust Guarantee.
What should I do if I don’t pass my board exam?
First, it’s important to remember that a non-passing result is not necessarily a reflection on your abilities as a physician. The way the ABPM tests you is not the same as the many ways you’re “tested” as a practicing physician. Check out this reassuring video from Dr. Jack - What To Do If You Fail Your Board Exam https://www.thepassmachine.com//video-what-to-do-fail-your-board-exam/
More to the point, American Physician Institute can work with you to help you get over this professional hurdle. Give us a call!
