No more so than that booklet 'Clinical Updates in Women's Health Care" that ACOG publishes. It has a quiz in the back for CME and the answers to the quiz are in the back page of the book. That seems a bit weird to me. Not even the stuff the drug company sponsored sends for CME has the answers in it!!!!!!

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.
