After a provider submits participant completion data for an MOC activity, PARS will verify the participant’s information against simple validation rules, and once verified, PARS will transmit the record to the specialty board (or boards) for validation. Once that has taken place and the board(s) complete its validation of the data, the participant record status will change to “accepted” or “rejected” within 24 hours. In the case that a record is rejected, the provider will be notified via email, and the reason for rejection will appear in PARS. Depending on what the reason is, a provider can correct the data and resubmit in PARS.
