This new chapter will strengthen support for and recognition of multidisciplinary clinicians managing antithrombotic therapy while expanding the visibility and value of the CACP credential across care settings.
BOSTON, Nov. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Anticoagulation Forum (AC Forum), a leading multidisciplinary organization dedicated to advancing excellence in antithrombotic care, today announced its merger with the National Certification Board for Anticoagulation Providers (NCBAP), the organization responsible for the Certified Antithrombotic Care Provider (CACP) credential.
This new chapter brings together AC Forum's national platform for education, clinical resources, and stewardship with NCBAP's longstanding certification program recognizing specialized expertise in anticoagulation care. Together, the organizations will strengthen support for clinicians managing complex antithrombotic therapy and expand the visibility and value of the CACP credential across disciplines and care settings.
The CACP credential recognizes healthcare professionals who have demonstrated advanced knowledge in anticoagulation and antithrombotic therapy management. Under the AC Forum umbrella, the credential will continue to serve as a trusted standard for clinicians seeking to validate their expertise, strengthen patient safety, and support high-quality care.
This transition also creates new opportunities to align certification with practical educational pathways, continuing education, recertification support, and employer-facing resources. Additional updates, including expanded candidate support and future program enhancements, will be shared in the coming weeks.
This milestone reflects a shared commitment to supporting the multidisciplinary clinicians who manage antithrombotic therapy every day, including pharmacists, nurses, nurse practitioners, advanced practice nurses, physicians, and physician assistants.
