Yes, like how successful we as a profession have been about educating the public on proper and judicious use of antibiotics, right? Today more than ever, the private doc is increasingly succeptable to market pressures. Add more pressure via patients coming in for the latest advertised drug, and it =will= get prescribed more, whether needed or not. Sad, but IMHO true.

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.
