I get it! I really do. Symantics can be a tricky thing. In our Midwife clinic, we call our pregnant clients.. "clients.." and remind them.. that Patients are sick people that need to see a doctor. And that they, our healthy "clients" are not sick. LOL! No offense anyone. I just thought it was cute.

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.
