How much we should tell te patient, their relative or insurance helth companies about the illnes of our patients?, how ethical it is not to tell the whole truth?, what we gain, what we lose telling the whole truth or the partial truth? thanks Luis Luis Daniel Flores MRCOG ldf@electromisiones.com.ar Bernard Cristalli wrote: > > Betsy Hyde wrote: > > > > I replied that twin pregnancy was considered high risk.

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.
