>Interesting concept, except how many family docs log enough OR time to Paul: I can't answer your question with stats, but can say that about 4% of FPs deliver babies once out of training. In our program, the residents are taught surgical skills, starting with the basics (i.e. suture and instruments) right up through abdominal cases, including c/sections. Only a few of our graduates pursue OB care once in practice (usually in very rural areas), but all of these have "come in early and gone home late" in order to gain expertise in c/sections. Our graduates who plan on doing some OB can have more than 100 c/sections under their belt. Plus, we have a felloship that further teaches Ob and NICU care to the fellows. 96% of FPs do not incorporate Ob care into their practice. The 4% that do *most* often do so in rural areas that do not have Ob/Gyns practicing nearby. Thanks, Ashley D. Ashley Hill, M.D. dahmd@gate.net Orlando,FL

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.
