>"Itinerant Surgery" Agreed. In this country, it is proscribed by both the American College of Surgeons and the Society of Gynecologic Oncologists. I'm not sure if ACOG has a statement on it or not...if it does, I'm sure it is not favorable. Perhaps access to care in other countries makes this the "standard of care." Based on my experience, it is hard to believe this is the best model of patient care. Admittedly, it is difficult to criticize the practice when it may represent the only means for women to have the surgery and I have not seen the outcomes or examined the issues through first-hand experience. I profess my ignorance of the intricacies of health care provision in India. In the U.S., neither distance nor time of travel is justification for itinerant surgery.

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.
