Jefferson,

it's not the question whether you do it, but whether there is a law to force you and the patient to do it.

The next step will be mandatory HAART, C/S and outlawing of breastfeeding.

I am not sure that this law will stand the test.

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.
