It would be less than what they are paying for insurance premiums and would gvie the patient incentive about what tests and operations and medicines they want. "My friend had breast cancer, I want that new MRI" "Im tired of bleeding cant you just take it out" Patients have no accountability for cost of medicine. Thats OK we have had no accountability for the cost of medicine either. > Date: Fri, 26 Jun 2009 00:46:56 -0500 > From: el@lisse.na > To: ob-gyn-l@mail.obgyn.net > Subject: Re: President's Wed night address on health care > > Nonsense. > > el > > art fougner, md wrote: > > Since most get insurance through their employer rather than purchase on > > their own, once a government-financed plan hits the market, employers > > will cease paying for private insurance in a heartbeat. > > > > Art Next message: art fougner, md: "Re: President's Wed night address on health care" Previous message: Andrew Folley: "Re: President's Wed night address on health care" In reply to: Dr Eberhard W Lisse: "Re: President's Wed night address on health care" Next in thread: art fougner, md: "Re: President's Wed night address on health care" Reply: art fougner, md: "Re: President's Wed night address on health care"

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.
