I just get a bit annoyed when I'm forced to dictate a specimen even when there isn't one, (I've been known to list the baby as my specimen from a c-section...it is something that is removed and something sent away) and a specific section for findings when they are already clearly spelled out. But sooner or later I'm sure I'll adapt. Glen //SIGNED// D.

Apparently, now there is a rule that there has to be a separate 'findings' heading with something dictated there. I now dictate the findings there and then only reference that in the narrative section. I always dictated with a PREOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS and then a POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS section before the actual OPERATIVE NOTE. 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.
