i recall the story of Denton Cooley's ( probably apocryphal) videotaping his informed discussion and consent with prospective Coronary Artery Bypass patients. afterward, many denied that what was clearly documented on the tape had taken place.

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.
