I realize that this is a luxury that all can not afford or arrange. Once the reasoning behind our rotating call schedule is explained, I have yet to have a patient complain about it. P.S. Our TOL success rate has been running 90% with about a 65-70% TOL rate. Not to brag...but I am proud of these numbers :) Now, of course, someone will want to discuss whether or not I should be proud of these numbers :0

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.
