Re: Family practice and OBFrom: Glen Elrod (dr99645@yahoo.com)Fri Dec 28 21:01:10 2007
I can't figure it out, though. The OBs all don't agree with it. The bylaws don't mention it. Maybe I'll just have to make waves! Glen

Is that what EMTALA call is meant for? If I were to try and make a change, what sort of legal legal (Joe) do I have to justify them picking an OB and consulting them. "emergency" OB is the one to back up FPs. It's not a legal thing, if the patient is delivering there anyway. EMTALA deals with transfer of (un)stable patients ("dumping"). What you have seems to be a medical staff arrangement, which implies local politics. And we know what that means to the "new guy." Joe P.

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.
