Cost of antenatal testingFrom: Dr. Montgomery (apgar10@thebirthcentermt.com)Tue Feb 27 07:29:19 2007
Listers, As ACOG and SMFM are promoting prenatal testing for "everyone", I was curious if anybody knows of a reference looking at the economics of this. With the current testing available (either NT/free beta or mid-trimester serum screening) and both of their associated "false positives" (sorry to use that term). I would be curious as to the financial breakdown if we tested everybody, then acted on the positives via CVS or amnio - what would be the actual cost per aneupliody identified. Somebody must have looked at this. Lynn Lynn D. Montgomery, M.D. Obstetrics & Gynecology, Maternal-Fetal Medicine The Birth Center/Rocky Mountain Women's Health 1211 S.

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.
