The USMLE is a three-step exam that provides a common evaluation system for applicants seeking initial licensure to practice medicine in the United States. <\/p>\n<p>Dr. Pamies, who joined UNMC in 2003, is nationally known for his significant work on the issue of health disparities. He joined former U.S. Surgeon General Dr. David Satcher to co-author what is considered the first medical textbook on the subject, &#8220;Multi-cultural Medicine and Health Disparities.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>The NBME examinations and services also are widely used by the medical education system. In addition, the NBME provides testing, educational, consultative and research services to a number of medical specialty boards, societies and health care organizations in the United States and internationally. <\/p>\n<p>The NBME membership is composed of approximately 80 individuals representing the academic community, national and professional organizations, state licensing boards, students, residents, the federal government and the public. <\/p>\n<p>USMLE is a joint program of the NBME and the Federation of State Medical Boards. Results of the USMLE are reported to individual licensing authorities in the United States and its territories for use in granting the initial license to practice medicine.
