Re: Consent for Vag deliveryFrom: RModugno@aol.comTue Jun 6 10:54:30 2006
In a message dated 6/6/2006 10:47:52 A.M. Eastern Standard Time, ainsron@sbcglobal.net writes: However, according to JCAHO, the hospital initiated consent form does not document informed consent. It has to be initiated and signed by the physician/CNM. I am arguing this point. Of course the hospital-initiated consent is informed consent - our hospital consent form complies with the state requirements for informed consent - and that's all that really matters - JCAHO be damned! :+) Soon they'll be saying that you don't need anti-depressants to treat postpartum depression, just vitamins, diet and exercise!

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.
