The American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) has taken some sort of disciplinary action against 140 docs who cheated on their ABIM certification exams. In a lawsuit that the ABIM had filed previously against Arora Board Review, a company that does
exam review courses for certification, the discovery process yielded information that proved to be more damaging for the docs than for Arora. The documents in the now-settled case included e-mails and other correspondence from the docs to Arora. The e-mails and correspondence revealed that the docs knew many of the questions and, indeed, followed up by sending along memorized test questions from their own certification exams to Arora in order to help the cert-docs-in-waiting along. List the stakeholders in this situation.
