Siegel, M.D.: "Re: Co-management" The FP called the local MFM, without calling me first, and they recommended keeping her here and what treatments to give. She never mentioned transfer of care, I guess.

Multiple pregnancy and threatened preterm labor x 2 seems to fulfill the definition of high risk pregnancy.

She has done a one year postresidency fellowship in obstetrics and does c-sections etc. One two occasions now the patient has been admitted for preterm labor (once by an FP partner without such fellowship training) and on neither occasion were my partner or I consulted with regards to her care. On questioning this, I was told that co-mangement meant being available for the delivery to assist as needed. > >Thoughts? > >Glen > > ____________________________________________________________________________________ >Be a better friend, newshound, and > ____________________________________________________________________________________ > >-- > -- art fougner, md "May The Wings of Liberty Never Lose a Feather." - Jack Burton ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and ____________________________________________________________________________________ know-it-all with Yahoo!

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.
