Doctors, Lawyers Find Themselves in Rare Agreement on Med-Mal BillFrom: Dean Huffman . (dean@thehuffpeople.net)Sun May 27 19:04:18 2007
.. Doctors, Lawyers Find Themselves in Rare Agreement on Med-Mal Bill The Associated Press Both the North Carolina Medical Society and the N.C. Academy of Trial Lawyers are supporting a bill, approved in the House by a wide margin Monday night, that caps monetary damages in negligence cases at $1 million, but only for those who agree to go to binding arbitration. The agreement is a marked change from previous years, when physicians have blamed rising malpractice insurance premiums on multimillion-dollar awards by runaway juries. http://alm.rsys1.net/servlet/cc5?HtuUQWADQTVKLHgxloLomMMiLhitLQgLlVaVSW

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.
