I'm working on ERAS (and, boy, do I hate it!). Twice, they ask if my medical education has been inturrupted or extended. Well, it hasn't been interrupted, but it sure has been extended! Is anyone answering "yes" to this question? I'm not sure if MD/PhDs are supposed to answer yes to that, or if it is more designed to ask about people who have taken more than four years in med school or took time off. Any opinions?
