Woletz, RDMS, RDCS, MPH: "Re: OB Videotapes" We do not video tape any of our studies. We use hard copy images only. I usually try to take a few hard copy images to send home with the patient. So far we have not had any problems doing this but we will be opening new facility soon and they want a policy in writing. Thanks for your input.

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.
