But unless an individual can provide data that in -their- hands the survival is equal to the care provided by referral centers with trained subspecialists, I find it disturbing that generalists would not provide at least the objective option to a patient for referral for such a deadly disease.

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.
