Abstract
"The Board adopted a Code of Ethics to require ethical and legal behavior of the candidates, examiners, consultants (question writers) and directors of the Board in fulfilling their professional responsibilities to patients, colleagues, and the public. Unethical or illegal physician behavior that comes to the attention of the Board through external or internal sources will be subject to review and judgment about the compliance with these standards. If a violation has been judged to occur, then the individual will be afforded the benefit of the appeals process of the Board. With the exception of private letters of reprimand, disciplinary actions of the Board, including delay in progression through the examination process, suspension or revocation of certification will be placed in the public domain."
