The patient in question essentially defrauded you. She signed up for YOUR prenatal care, with the implication that (baring unforeseen circumstances) you or your group would deliver her and you would bill her insurance, yada, yada, yada, and take the liability for her pregnancy.

NOW, you find that you cannot bill for her delivery, I'm sure you paid your malpractice this year anyway, and she falsely told you that you (or your group) would attend her delivery.

I've seen people "discharged" from a practice for much less.

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.
