Bad weekFrom: Anna Meenan, MD (annam@uic.edu)Fri Feb 21 18:51:52 2003
Monday I got a "Compliance Alert" from an insurance company informing me that, by their calculations, one of my patients had missed 8.6% of her doses of Prilosec, and insisting that I needed to return the form with my assesment of why this might be so. The choices included "Pt. no longer taking this med", "Pt. deceased" and a couple of others. I wrote in "Pt. is a normal average human being." Do I really need this? Wednesday I saw a 14-year-old girl with a tongue stud that said "Lick Me" on it. Her mother took her to have it done and was proud of how brave the kid was. I know those of you who practice in New York or California have probably seen much worse than that, but this is a small farm town in Illinois. I was depressed. I comforted myself with the thought that, if her boyfriend can read and follow instructions, at least she won't get pregnant. Today my partner (1/4 of our group) was called up to report to his reserve unit on Sunday and ship out on Monday. Yikes!

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.
