And we have not been charging for that. -- Rafael Haciski, MD FACOG Gynecology & Infertility Associates Baltimore, MD 410-825-0020 On Tuesday, Aug 5, 2003, at 19:40 US/Eastern, Mark Perloe wrote: > Injection teaching for the administration of gonadotropins for OI or > IVF often takes up to one hour.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
