Fla. Court: Insurers Can't Ignore Doctors' Best Interests in SettlementsFrom: Dean Huffman . (dean@thehuffpeople.net)Fri May 25 14:26:44 2007
.. Fla. Court: Insurers Can't Ignore Doctors' Best Interests in Settlements Daily Business Review Reversing a lower court decision, a Florida appeals court has ruled that companies that insure physicians against medical malpractice lawsuits must settle cases in the best interest of the doctors -- not their own. The panel ordered reinstatement of Dr. Anthony G. Rogers' complaint against Chicago Insurance Co. for settling a case against his will and affecting his insurability. Chicago Insurance later canceled Rogers' policy, forcing him to pay substantially higher premiums to obtain new coverage. http://www.law.com/jsp/article.jsp?id=1179751701888

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.
