The National Board of Anesthesiology, Inc. was originally incorporated in 1989 as a not-for-profit corporation. It is so recognized by the Internal Revenue service as a 510(c)(6) nonprofit corporation.
The N.B.A. is governed by a six-person board of directors comprised of N.B.A. Diplomates who hold either the D.D.S. or the D.M.D. Doctoral degrees. Each of the four geographical sections of the United States are represented on the board.
Once a year this board administers both written and oral examinations to qualified candidates in anesthesiology. Those examinations exemplify the highest standards administered by specialty boards and qualifies the candidate as a consultant in Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Management.
The examinations are offered without regard to any consideration of age, gender, religious affiliation, race, handicap or martial status.
The N.B.A. is dedicated to assisting the American public in the selection of qualified and competent anesthesiology care. The N.B.A. establishes and maintains criteria for the designation of a Board Certified Anesthesiologist. |
