Read What Your Colleagues Are Saying About This Course

“I just took the BASIC exam after having used this API review course and passed on the first try. This course has easy-to-follow lectures and great powerpoints to accompany each lecture. It focuses on material relevant to the board exam and goes in depth instead of trying to cover too much. I liked the ability to speed up or slow down the lecture and also that I was able to download and print the powerpoints since I like to write out my notes. I would recommend this course to my colleagues.”

Paul Cheng, MD, Chicago, IL

“After doing terrible on my ITE, my advisor strongly recommended purchasing this course. I'm so glad I did! It helped me organize my thoughts and gave me structure to learning a subject that's not very easy to learn! I passed my exam and it made this course worth every penny! Thank you!”

Theresa Gerges, DO, Livingston, NJ

“This course helped me ensure that I covered all necessary topics leading into the exam. As this is a new exam for the ABA I felt in the dark and with API's help I was able to successfully navigate through the appropriate material to ensure a passing score! Thanks!”

John Dolerschell, MD, Overland Park, KS

"I used Pass Machine, I took the test and passed!"

Brandon Merling, MD, Chicago, IL

"I took the second ever Basic exam and felt a bit of unease leading into the test, but this was lessened by having a lecture series and question banks that were developed directly from the ABA BASIC Outline. The lectures as well as question banks left me extremely prepared for the exam. The software was easy to use, the question banks and detailed explanations very easy to read, and I would highly recommend this to colleagues."

Nathan Belt, MD, Worcester, MA

Saad Karmal, MD, Naperville, IL

"The program was well organized and stuck to the outline very efficiently. The lecture material was nicely put together. The 3 day live course was a bit difficult to attend secondary to work/ call schedules."

Karl Takabayashi, MD, Torrance, CA

"The lectures were incredible. I got questions right on the test primarily because they were covered in the lecture. The best part is that i actually learned and understood the material as oppose to just beating a test. I will buy this again for the advanced and i will recommend this course to all the new CA 1. In addition i will keep all my notes for my own review and study. Thanks!"

The Pass Machine Anesthesiology Basic Board Review – Frequently Asked Questions

General Questions about The Pass Machine and American Physician Institute

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 Andriod 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 tuition refund if you don’t pass the exam the first time after taking the course, but it also gives you an extra 10% AND allows you continued access until you pass, for free. This unprecedented guarantee serves to assure you of the confidence we have that The Pass Machine content is exceptional.

Who produces The Pass Machine Courses? Where do you get your faculty?

The Pass Machine board review courses are produced by American Physician Institute for Advanced Professional Studies, LLC (API). API conducts dozens of courses and trains thousands of anesthesiologists each year to pass their boards and stay up-to-date in their fields. Every single one of American Physician Institute‘s educational courses has full editorial independence, is free of pharmaceutical and industry sponsorship and is backed by an unbeatable guarantee. Because of its reputation for excellence, American Physician Institute is able to enlist many of the top faculty from the best universities, teaching hospitals and research facilities in the country to provide you with Category 1 CME educational activities.

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.

Does The Pass Machine offer any free board review resources?

Yes! Start with our Medical Board Review Blog. There are general articles featuring board prep tips, and articles on board prep that are more board-specific.

What is your DUNS Number?

American Physician Institute’s DUNS Number is: 016073724

Can I get a discount off course tuition?

Board Exam Results and The Triple Trust Guarantee

Is The Pass Machine Anesthesiology Basic review pass-guaranteed?

Yes, all full courses are pass-guaranteed, and backed by The 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 an online course with “The Triple Trust Guarantee” and then do not pass your board exam, API will issue a 100% refund of your paid tuition *, plus an additional 10% payment. You’ll also continue to get online course access until you pass the exam, tuition-free. 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. No other company does? 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 allow you continued access to the course tuition-free until you pass your exam for as long as the exam is offered by the certifying board. 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 anesthesiologist. The way the ABA tests you is not the same as the many ways you’re “tested” as a practicing anesthesiologist. 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!

I didn’t pass my board exam. How do I activate my course guarantee?

To activate your guarantee, you must notify American Physician of your failure to pass your board exam and submit a copy of your exam notification and scores. To be eligible for the refund portion of the guarantee you must submit your documents within 45 days of the date of your exam fail notification. To notify American Physician and submit your documents, go to your course dashboard and click on the "Guarantee" tab. Complete the form and attach your exam notification and scores. You will receive an email confirmation of receipt and someone will contact you shortly. If you need assistance with this process or your course access is expired, please contact Customer Care at 877-225-8384

Anesthesiology Basic Course Access

When do I receive online access to Anesthesiology Basic review course materials?

When a credit card or debit is used for payment, access is immediate. When a check is used as payment, access will be granted once the check has been received and verified.

How long do I have access to my online materials? Does my course expire?

The Anesthesiology Basic prep course and all its associated online material remains active for a full 12 months from your date of purchase when you register now.

What if I'm not ready to take my exam? Can I extend my course?

Some anesthesiologists invest in a board-preparation course many years prior to their exam. In these cases, The Pass Machine allows course registrants to extend the life of their course by 12 months for an additional fee. If you wish to extend your access, please call 877-225-8384 prior to your course expiration date. NOTE: Extension options are not available to Group registrations.
