> I would like to restate the idea of having links to psychiatric services online also. I am not getting close to the idea of fee splitting. Simply, psychiatrists are allowed to advertise. Dr. Bob's site could have link to various p-docs web pages. The pages would give a breif history or description of the psychiatrists area of specialty, etc. The links could be organized by specialty and/or location. Dr.s on the site would also have to note whether they are allowed to practice out of state or out of country. For example, can an Italian p-doc consult a U.S. citizen. Can an Italian P-doc prescribe for a U.S. citizen.

1. I'm hoping to include some sort of directory, of contributors, with the next version of Psychopharmacology Tips. Which might serve some of the same purposes.
2. My concern with straight advertisements is that I might be seen (rightly or wrongly) as endorsing those services.
