Although it's uncommon for us to fire a patient, when we do they receive a certified letter stating that we are unable to care for them, and that they have 30 days to receive emergency care from us. After that they need to be under the care of a new physician (or midwife). Of course, we are happy to provide a referral, and once a release is signed, send records. We enclose a release form for the patient to fax back to the office. Best wishes, Ashley

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.
