    NEWARK, DE, June 28, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- With Urgent Care Medicine now serving a vital role in our health care system, Exam Master announces a partnership with the American Board of Urgent Care Medicine and the Medical Society of Delaware to provide its latest professional development resource that brings AMA PRA Category 1 Credit to Urgent Care physicians and health care professionals.
