Re: Family Practice Consultation GuidelinesFrom: Braun, R. Daniel (rbraun@iupui.edu)Wed May 7 11:10:44 2003
Good Luck. Been there, Done that. No success. Once they have the right to credential themselves, you're out of it. Dan -----Original Message----- From: Lynn D. Montgomery, M.D. [mailto:apgar10@montanadsl.net] Sent: Tuesday, May 06, 2003 2:37 PM To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L Subject: Re: Family Practice Consultation Guidelines Dan, I agree completely; there are two issues, 1) those currently practicing have privileges and you can't change the privileges unless they want them changed, 2)They have their own family practice section, as many hospital do, who oversee ALL of their privileges and the OB section is powerless to mandate anything, again unless they agree. That said, there are members of the OB section that have the attitude that "By God, I am an obstetrician and if I say they need to consult, that's final". On the other side of the coin, there are family practitioners who are saying, "You don't credential us, we credential ourselves and we'll decide when a consult is required". Since The sections and bylaws are well established, neither side is gonna back down - unless of course there is a consensus reached. That is the impetus for my request for other's guidelines - I am sitting down with a representative from the family practice section to see if we can come to a mutually acceptable set of guidelines.

The best thing is to have a good definition of what their privileges are and then enforce that.

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.
