Dynamic Computer Simulation Models: New Methodology for Continuing Medical Education

Structural changes in the health care delivery system are creating new opportunities for continuing medical education (CME). In this article, we review the evolving role of CME and outline how computer simulation methodology can be used to facilitate self-directed and group learning, and illustrate this approach with three applications: adolescent smoking prevention programs, smoking cessation programs in managed care organizations, and cost-containment efforts in cardiovascular surgery.
