Med-Mal Trial Awards Reduced by 30 PercentFrom: GORDON M. GOLDMAN (dean@thehuffpeople.net)Wed Jul 14 08:59:23 2004
.. Study: Calif. Med-Mal Trial Awards Reduced by 30 Percent The Associated Press As the debate on tort reform continues, a recent study reveals that California's medical malpractice law has cut awards in malpractice trials by an average of 30 percent -- and attorney fees by 60 percent. California's law is among the most restrictive in the nation in compensating patients for malpractice, and has been cited by President Bush when prodding Congress to pass med-mal legislation that many trial lawyers oppose. http://www.law.com/jsp/article.jsp?id=1089315034662 (This might be the same article referenced yesterday -- I am not certain.)

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.
