Pay Annual Certificate Fee
The ABU accepts credit card payments of the Annual Certificate Fee, applying a 3% convenience fee to offset bank charges.
Online payments for Diplomates in multi-physician practices or departments must be entered as separate, individual transactions to ensure proper credit to each Diplomate account.
The $300 Annual Certificate Fee is due by April 1, 2023. After April 1, a $200 late fee applies. After July 1, the late fee doubles to $400 and $700 is owed. The $700 fee must be paid by November 1 or the certificate may be suspended. Address corrections and updates are the responsibility of the Diplomate. Late fees will not be waived for incorrect or outdated mailing addresses.
Should extenuating circumstances prevent payment in a timely manner, please contact the Board office at 434-979-0059.
