She should get it from the doc who got the big bucks for doing the surgery! I personally object to being a "resident" or "intern" for the tertiary doc - after being in practice for 16 years! If the Gyn-Onc wants you to collaborate on cases like this then you are owed communication when the patient is discharged - not 3 week later when the transcriptionist gets around to it! Dartmouth used to (may still have) a discharge co-ordinator who made sure the referring practice got called or faxed on the day of discharge so if the patient showed up on our doorstep we knew about what was going on. I call that respecting those who feed (refer to) you!

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.
