Before i retired, I was a state government employee. The state demanded recisions from the universities three years in a row. The first thing that went was our raises. For the last FIVE years i worked there, I did not get a raise.

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.
