Re: San Francisco Jury Awards Boy $70.9MFrom: DoctorJoe@aol.comWed Oct 1 22:08:29 2003

<< The actual cost to the defendants will be much less than the gross $70.9
million verdict because defendants in medical malpractice cases are
entitled to fund verdict judgments with an annuity, Sheuerman said,
estimating that the actual cost to his client would end up around $2 million.
>> Good point. The "losers" really pay peanuts in this kind of case. It's a sleight-of-hand by insurers which skews the spin of the case so we all sigh and roll our eyes. $2M these days is not a hell of a lot for a case like this. Joe P.

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.
