20/20 did a piece on this tonight. You can find the transcript at abcnews.go.com. My sister had an embolization last year, her insurance paid the entire cost, and she was extremely pleased with the results. I realize that's a series of one, but she feels she made the right choice.

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.
