RE: ama rule
ARCF - AMA won't be the decision maker at all. If they were to say "no", then you can bet you ***** the lawyers would be suing the AMA for not becoming involved since it was a "AMA sanctioned" field. So, no, AMA isn't going to sign off on this.
Look, AMA isn't the ones dictating these CAN DO - CANT DO's. It's the insurance company that AMA is purchasing coverage from. I can guarantee that AMA gets audited each year by it's (our secondary) insurance company. Every little detail is scrutinized as to how much "risk" is involved.
