Minimum wage also "takes the initiative away from the worker." Yes, if everyone did what was right, everyone would be fine. Doing what is right also means a living wage, and not pouring toxic waste on the ground. There is something about the corporate structure that removes the humane aspect to business.

Fee for service was capitalism, but I can't call corporate medicine capitalistic. I don't know what to call it, but it does not seem very much like a free market from the patients' point of view. Actually, when big business provides healthcare for its workers, I kinda look at that as quasi-socialism. "Big Brother" is "taking care of me" -- he gives me my salary, my healthcare, my lunch breaks, etc. I can see the benefit to the business -- try what you can to keep your workers healthy. But it takes the initiative away from the worker. Now, health INSURANCE companies are just that -- insurance companies. They follow Pastorek's Law. Joe P.

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.
