Re: Office Surgery ProtocolsFrom: Joe (forcep@intercom.net)Sun May 27 10:17:21 2007
Certainly depends on level of surgery. I had a surgicenter in my office and did over 2000 tubals under anesthesia and was Accredited by AAAHC and was a surveyor for them. I hope we don't get to point of having to accredit ourselves for minor procedures. But that ugly possibility will arise as soon as payors decide we are doing too many. The thin ice is sedation preop and how far you are willing to take it , ie dentist with nitrous. ACOG has no guidelines. Many states now do. I did a d&c in my office in 1976 and was censured by my county medical society. Cheers. Joe C

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.
