Ob-Gyn Risk Alliance Fetal Heart Rate Monitoring (FHR) Interpretation Position Statement
In keeping with our mission, we encourage national certification or training in FHR interpretation for all obstetrical physicians and providers. We support certification or training that includes the standard definitions outlined in ACOG's Practice Bulletin #106. Sharing a common language between obstetricians, providers, and obstetrical nurses will help improve communication, enhance patient safety, and promote quality care.
Resources are available to Ob-Gyn Risk Alliance insured obstetricians and providers seeking national certification.
The Ob-Gyn Risk Alliance (OBRA)
OBRA is the first medical professional liability insurance program established exclusively for obstetricians and gynecologists. ProAssurance underwrites and issues your professional liability policy through the Ob-Gyn Risk Alliance risk purchasing group program.
