| Part V, Line 4 | Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund. | In 1995, the NBME established the Edward J. Stemmler, MD Medical Education Research Fund. The initial sum of $5,000,000 was invested and professionally managed with the goal of increasing the size of the Fund over time while providing total annual grants up to 5% of the trailing three-year average of the fund balance. The Fund makes grants to support research in topics relevant to the mission of the NBME. Specific investment guidelines were established by the NBME Finance Committee. As with all NBME invested funds, the Finance Committee monitors performance and recommends to the Executive Board any changes to the principal balance of the Fund. Since inception to date, the Stemmler Fund has awarded 73 grants for a total of approximately $6.1 million. |

| Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used | THE EDWARD J. STEMMLER, MD MEDICAL EDUCATION RESEARCH FUNDOF THE NATIONAL BOARD OF MEDICAL EXAMINERS (NBME)Purpose:The purpose of the Stemmler Fund is to provide support for research or development of innovative evaluation methodology or techniques, with the potential to advance assessment in medical education or practice at eligible medical schools.2012-2013 Goal: The goal of the Stemmler Fund's 2012-2013 Call for Letters of Intent is to provide support, through a program of annual grants, for research or development of innovative assessment approaches that will enhance the evaluation of those preparing to, or continuing to, practice medicine. Expected outcomes include advances in the theory, knowledge, or practice of assessment at any point along the continuum of medical education, from undergraduate and graduate education and training, through clinical practice. Pilot and more comprehensive projects are both of interest. Collaborative investigations within or among institutions are not only eligible but encouraged, particularly as they strengthen the likelihood of the project's overall contribution and success.Eligibility: The eligible applicants for Stemmler Fund grant awards are the medical schools accredited by the LCME or the AOA. Additional eligibility requirements include:- The number of Letters of Intent submitted by any eligible school is not limited. However, an individual may not be principal investigator on more than one Letter of Intent. The designated principal investigator must represent the primary applicant institution and must be responsible for project oversight and reporting. (The applicant institution's rules apply regarding eligibility of their faculty, staff, or associates to serve as investigators.)- A maximum of two applications representing a revised Letter of Intent previously submitted to the Fund program will be accepted by the NBME. That is, applications addressing the same substantive study topic by the same investigators may be submitted for Fund consideration no more than a total of three times.- The primary investigators of prior Fund grants are eligible to reapply and compete (with new applicants) for one additional award through the Stemmler Fund Call for Letters of Intent for the same line of study. Current award recipients are eligible to compete again only if any current NBME support is expected to terminate satisfactorily by the beginning of the 2012-2013 project period (usually July 1, 2013).Selection Process:1. All submitted Letters of Intent will be reviewed by NBME staff to ensure eligibility and completeness.2. The Stemmler Fund Steering Committee will then evaluate Letters of Intent on the extent to which the proposed research is innovative or will advance assessment in medical education or practice, and addresses an important problem or issue in medical education or practice.3. The Stemmler Fund Steering Committee will then meet to select a subset of Letters of Intent (e.g., 10-15) and invite the principal investigators to submit full proposals.4. All Invited Proposals will be reviewed by NBME staff to ensure completeness.5. Peer reviewers with expertise in measurement, research design and methodology will then evaluate Invited Proposals on the relevance and significance of the proposal to the purpose and goals of the Stemmler Fund, the adequacy of the research design or methodology, and the qualifications of the principal investigator and project staff.6. The Stemmler Fund Steering Committee will then review all proposals and peer reviews, giving careful consideration to the adequacy of the budget, timetable, and other key project resources in each proposal, and select awardees. The NBME will provide feedback detailing the comments provided by reviewers of applications not selected for funding.Grant Fund Use Monitoring:Grant recipients are required to submit an interim and final report which includes a Final Project Narrative and a Final Project Fiscal Report. |

| Explanation | First Class Travel and Travel for CompanionsNBME's Business Travel policy states that "NBME reimburses reasonable and actual air and train travel at the most economical coach fare." First-class travel and travel for companions are not specifically authorized in the policy. In limited circumstances, certain NBME Officers and Key Employees may be permitted first-class travel if authorized by the President. First-class travel and spousal travel for the President is included in the compensation package. The cost incurred for travel for companions is included in the employee's taxable earnings.Tax Indemnification and Gross-Up PaymentsNBME has a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) and Highly Compensated Employee program (HCE) for which the payments are grossed up for Federal, State, and local income taxes. Therefore, the amount reflected on the employees' W-2 includes taxes remitted by NBME for taxes on the employees' behalf. See Schedule J, Part 1, line 4 for description of the SERP and the HCE.Social Club DuesNBME pays dues for membership to The Pyramid Club for its President. | Explanation |

| Form 990, Part III, Line 4d | Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services Description | OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: The Post-Licensure Assessment System (PLAS) is a joint activity of the NBME and the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB). PLAS comprises two programs: the Special Purpose Examination (SPEX) Program and the Assessment Center Program (ACP). SPEX is a one-day, multiple-choice examination of current knowledge requisite for the general, undifferentiated practice of medicine and is intended to be used for reasons of endorsement or reciprocity of licensure. The ACP provides comprehensive objective and personalized assessments of physicians for whom there is a question regarding clinical competence. Together, the PLAS programs have assessed thousands of physicians over the past decade for reasons that range from endorsement of licensure to license reactivation after disciplinary action. In 2012, the Assessment of Professional Behaviors (APB) multisource feedback program was rebranded as the Observational Assessment (OA) team to better reflect NBMEs work in multiple domains. In 2012, the OA team worked closely with the Center for Innovation (see below) and the Association of Pediatric Program Directors to design and implement observational assessments of pediatric milestones. Also in 2012, the OA team provided consulting services to Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar; met with the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland School of Pharmacy to develop a pilot program that would assess core competencies; and revisited the potential for observational assessment of professionalism in undergraduate medical education.Research and Development Programs include the Center for Innovation and the Stemmler Medical Education Research Fund. The Center for Innovation is charged with development of new products and services and exploration of new ventures that facilitate NBME's strategic vision and mission. The Stemmler Medical Education Research Fund assists research in topics relevant to the mission of NBME and has supported 73 grant awards for a total of over $6.1 million since 1995. In addition to these defined programs of research and development, each program area and service unit is charged to carry on a program of research and development relevant to the work of the program or unit, for example, development of new item formats for USMLE, exploring relationships between prior measures and certifying exam performance for our clients and developing new testing methods for clients. These research and development activities result in the publication of dozens of research reports in scientific journals and presentations at scientific meetings each year.Note: The expenses reflected above do not include institutional indirect expenses. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 5: NBME's International Programs unit provides students, graduate physicians, medical schools, and regulatory agencies with valid and reliable information regarding individual knowledge and overall curriculum effectiveness. The International Foundations of Medicine (IFOM) examinations represent a key component of NBME International Programs. The Clinical Science Examination (CSE) covers the core of clinical knowledge in medicine, surgery, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, and psychiatry expected of students in the final year of undergraduate medical education. The Basic Science Examination (BSE) incorporates the common core of knowledge expected of students who have completed the preclinical curriculum and are about to begin study of clinical medicine. In 2012, approximately 3,400 candidates sat for the IFOM CSE. The NBME International Programs unit also offers a portfolio of consultative, faculty and institutional development, and assessment programs in the international undergraduate medical education, certification and licensure, and graduate medical education environments. Consultative services often include an on-site evaluation of the overall assessment capability for medical schools. The International Programs unit is also involved in various research projects related to the validity and reliability of various assessment tools. Note: The expenses reflected above do not include institutional indirect expenses. |
