ASH Specialists Program, Inc.
The ASH Specialists Program was formed by the
American Society of Hypertension, Inc. (ASH) in 1998 in response
to the growing recognition that the hypertension problem requires
the coordinated effort of front-line health care providers and
those physicians with documented expertise in managing hypertension.
The ASH Specialists Program created the Specialist in Clinical
Hypertension designation for the specific purpose of identifying
and recognizing physicians with expert skills and knowledge in
the management of clinical hypertension and related disorders.
These physicians can act as local and regional consultants for
the more complex and difficult cases and also assist in advice
regarding guidelines and process improvement. To date, designation
has been granted to 1242 physicians practicing in the United States,
Canada and other countries.
| The next Specialists Examination will
be held in May 2010.
