Paging the AMA: Here's how you do it. The AMA (American Medical Association) has been fighting the FTC over whether doctors should be subject to the Red Flags Rule, and the FTC just won't agree to the AMA's perfectly good reasons. The ABA (American Bar Association) has had the same complaint with the FTC, although the ABA has been much more aggressive, not waiting for the FTC to specifically call out lawyers to be subject to the rules. Even without the FTC saying lawyers should be subject to the Red Flags Rule, the ABA has now sued the FTC, demanding they specifically agree that lawyers aren't subject to it.

C'mon, docs, start acting like lawyers.
