Medical City Dallas Hospital is accredited to provide continuing medical education for physicians. The purpose of the CME program is to build upon previous learning. The goal is to close gaps in physician's knowledge, competence, or performance in order to achieve a standard of excellence in the provision of optimal patient care. The overall premise is to expect physicians to embrace meaningful, continuous lifelong learning and improvement.

The Continuing Medical Education (CME) programs are conducted in accordance with Article XII, Section 5 of Medical City's Medical Staff bylaws, the Texas Medical Association's System for Accreditation of Providers of Continuing Medical Education in Texas, and the Texas State Board of Medical Examiners' requirements for registration of medical license.
