we all know you mean preterm not prenatal. as far as being the richest country - not sure that's true either. personally, i think that the govt is using doctors to lower the unemployment rate. thanks to hcfa and hmo's, office staffs are growing by leaps and bounds to perform functions having nothing whatsoever to do with patient care.

just my opinion, i could be wrong.

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.
