It is an assertion of fact. So, can you point me to the empirical evidecne that it is true?

That's pretty funny, Steve, even though I'm sure unintentionally so. Unless you favor repealing all medical licensure laws and allowing patients to freelychoose what kind of practitioner they see (MD, chiropractor, NP, voodoo doctor, whatever), then you *are* pushing your beliefs onto others. You are endorsing a system which forces them into a narrow range of choices, and criminally prosecutes those who step onto physician's "turf" by practicing medicine without a license.

Do you have any conception of the hypocrisy of one in your position claiming that he is not "pushing" his beliefs on anybody? *I* stand for genuine freedom of choice. *You* stand for coersion, restricted freedom, enforced monopoly.

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.
