The history of medicine in the United States has been one that has shown itself to be very effective when it comes to discrediting other healing modalities and practitioners. I would challenge the community to stand up for itself and become cohesive in the area of reimbursement and malpractice.

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.
