Overview

Mission

Medical testing board and business league.

What it reported doing in 2025

Doctors are board certified in laser medicine and surgery in disciplines of cosmetic dental or gynecologic procedures. Study materials and or in-person courses to prepare for board exams are provided to these candidate doctors. Following preparation written and oral exams are given by the board to the candidate doctors and taken and must be passed. Diplomate certificates are awarded to the doctors who pass the exams successfully. See Schedule O - all expenses are in support of the primary purpose.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 93% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
