Introduction

Welcome to the ASMBS / SAGES Video Curriculum leading to BE-SAFE! the new ASMBS / SAGES verification examination for Bariatric Endoscopy. BE-SAFE! stands for Bariatric Endoscopy- Skill Acquisition Focused Evaluation ASMBS and SAGES have worked together to develop a verification process for members with experience in performing bariatric endoscopy to verify they have acquired the necessary skills to perform these procedures. We believe strongly that surgeons should be performing endoscopy and hope to further strengthen our important role in endoscopic treatment of bariatric patients.

Candidates are required to have performed at least 50 upper endoscopic procedures and then complete the video curriculum before taking the qualifying written exam. After passing the qualifying written exam, candidates will then be able to register for the BE-SAFE! hands on skills verification exam.
