Re: Doctors leaving delivery rooms over malpractice insurance costsFrom: Zachariah Newton (zbnewton@bellsouth.net)Wed Apr 14 22:06:34 2004
Joe- There do exist benchmarks. I have no citations. Bad things happen with intervention, charged by intent of beneficence. In Ob, and everywhere else in life. Benign neglect is way retro in your hypothetical. The balance of availability of informed and benevolent professional care vs. raw nature fails the smell test of any of us who have acted on emergent situations on a 24/7 basis through residency and career. To raise the rhetorical question of reversion to nature is unfathomable. Zach Newton Z. B. Newton, III, M.D. Atlanta/Gyn

Given the analogy to 9/11, I think that it would take a major catastrophe and then, people would only remember it for a short period of time. Okay, suppose NO ob-gyns delivered babies. If all the mothers delivered at home, how bad off would the statistics be? Joe P.

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.
