One way I found to be effective was to inservice the Peds, FP, and Obs once or twice a year at one of their monthly medical staff meetings during the education component. The docs at our hospital have a business meeting first, followed by a one hour education inservice for CMEs. If you offer CMEs (and food) they will come. Find out who the medical staff secretary is and make friends with her - she will act as a liasion between you and the docs and will not only schedule you but will apply for CMEs for your presentation once you give her a copy of your materials, as well as Xerox any handouts and arrange for any A-V equipment you may require. Some docs find a series of short topics less threatening (and time-consuming) than a day-long affair. Good luck in your endeavors!
