Christian Medical & Dental Society

Conferences and Seminars: CMDA seeks to encourage, train and equip healthcare professionals and students in their professional lives by providing conferences on evangelism, marriage, bioethical issues, women in healthcare, family and more. National conventions and regional seminars allow members to network with colleagues, hear renowned Christian speakers and discuss professional and spiritual issues. CMDA is approved to offer Category 1 Continuing Medical Education (CME) for physicians, as well as Continuing Dental Education (CDE) for dentists. CMDA offers continuing medical and dental educational credits in the USA and on some GHO and MEI mission trips, as well as in an annual overseas conference for missionaries and national doctors to provide their required yearly continuing education requirements which may have been difficult for the missionaries to otherwise obtain.

Publication and Resource sales: Life & Health Resources provides educational materials, books, CDs, DVDs, and logo items. CMDA members receive the quarterly CMDA magazine, CMDA Today, providing practical ways for members to integrate Christian faith and values with their professional practice. CMDA provides updates on legislative actions and news developments in bioethical issues, missions reports, and personal and professional resources which are also replicated on the CMDA website. CMDA Matters is a weekly podcast offering news, updates and perspectives on issues such as malpractice, witnessing in the workplace, bioethics, and more.

Public policy -CMDA serves as the collective voice of thousands of Christian doctors on bioethical and other health care issues. CMDA promotes a Christian perspective on ethical issues and provides medically reliable and biblically sound guidance on healthcare issues. Many turn to CMDA for help with critical bioethical issues, such as abortion, conscience rights in healthcare, euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide, human trafficking, embryo research, and many others. CMDA experts have testified in Congress and have conducted hundreds of media interviews for national outlets. The Washington office serves as a liaison with the White House, Congress, and federal agencies. The Washington office provides experts for congressional testimony, legislative counsel, coordinates legal briefs in court cases, and White House consultation; produces commentaries and articles for national media; networks with and assists other pro-life policy organizations; and provides members with updates and analysis on public policy issues. An extensive website offers valuable information on critical issues related to medical ethics and healthcare. The Washington Office of the Christian Medical Association links our members with Congress, the Administration, and policy organizations; presents life-honoring perspectives through the national media; and publishes resources on vital issues.

Other National Ministries such as our Placement Services, Endowments, as well as many other various small ministries.
