I'm trying to get several of my clients to do this, as they were the ones that walked into my birth center @ 6 + cm. But they want nnothing to do w/ a lawsuite. If I did it I would probably never have one of the Ob's here accept a client of mine again. I can't lose that. I have lab and sono privilages @ that hosp, and I can't lose that either.

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.
