Commissioner's Medical Grand Rounds

The Commissioner's Medical Grand Rounds offers an opportunity for healthcare professionals to hear from subject matter experts from both inside and outside the NYS Department of Health about issues relevant to the health of all New Yorkers. A goal of the program is for all New York State providers have access to timely and evidence-based information that can improve patient care, regardless of their practice setting.

As of Fall 2022, Continuing Medical Education (CME) Credits, Continuing Nurse Education Contact Hours (CNE), Certified Health Education Specialist Contact Hours (CECH) and Certified in Public Health (CPH) Renewal Credits are made available by the University at Albany School of Public Health to viewers of either live events or archived sessions. We aim to encourage participation from providers all over the state of New York.
