Absolutely!  The AMA just needs to make it a priority, as do state health
depts. and US Health and Human Services (including Medicare regulators).
Private insurance companies need to start demanding it as well.  If an
HCP can't get reimbursed or renew a license without breastfeeding CMEs
(continuing medical educ.), they would flock to breastfeeding courses.
