Maybe it is the tipping point for some physicians, already stressed out about the other regulatory requirements they must adhere to that chip away at clinical time.

Or maybe it's a little bit of both. The ABMS MOC program has come under heavy criticism from physicians, frustrated by the increasing requirements and cost to comply with the program.
