Very interesting.

When I put the URL in (after having removed spaces and carriage returns), it allows me to view the page in question, even though I have not logged into the ACOG web site. However, it DOES NOT allow me access to anything else on the web site that would normally require a login. If the URL DOES include my subscriber ID and password, at least it appears to be encrypted or otherwise hidden.

I wonder whether or not ACOG is aware of this fact, that with the proper URL, but not a user ID or passwoerd, one can access a specific page on their site.

Not really, since the URL ssems to include a subscriber ID.

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.
