You can do it, you just can't get paid with Federal funds for doing it or anything else that was done in the same hospitalization,if you do it.

In California, and I think anywhere in the USA, tubal ligation can only be done at the time of emergency surgery if the patient has previously been counselled and signed sterilization consent forms, at least 72 hours before the emergency surgery. Obviously, that doesn't mean that you cannot remove a tube if an ectopic is present, but you cannot legaly "tie" the other tube. That begs the question on whether or not emergency sugery is even indicated on this patient, and without more details, . . . Ronald E. Ainsworth, MD

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.
