MedLearning

What MedLearning does

Med Learning Group (MLG / MedLearning) is a full-service accredited continuing medical education (CME) company that has been ACCME-accredited continuously since 2004, operating as a division of Ultimate Medical Academy. The company develops and delivers free CME activities to healthcare practitioners — physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, pharmacists, social workers, dietitians, and radiologists — across more than 20 therapeutic areas including oncology, neurology, psychiatry, infectious disease, immunology, cardiovascular, respiratory, ophthalmology, transplant, dermatology, gastroenterology, and endocrinology. Its programming portfolio spans multiple delivery formats: live summits and symposia held across major U.S. cities, TeleECHO sessions modeled on Project ECHO for virtual clinics, Clinical Conversations case-based workshops, on-demand online modules, and grand rounds hosted at 500+ academic and community hospitals. The technology stack includes virtual reality and 3D simulation content (deployed across glaucoma, bladder cancer, atopic dermatitis, asthma, NSCLC, NHL, and Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer programs), interactive case-based modules, whiteboard animations, and an automated credit-tracking system integrated with CME Passport.

MedLearning is monetized almost entirely through educational grants from pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device companies rather than through learner fees; CME activities are provided free of charge to practitioners. The company also derives revenue from customized educational programs developed for managed care organizations (CVS Caremark, UnitedHealth Group, Catholic Healthcare West, Walgreens, Omnicare, Humana) and government agencies (VA, DoD, CDC, NIH, IHS), and applies Moore's Levels 5–6 outcomes measurement (behavior surveys, chart reviews, patient surveys) to demonstrate measurable clinician behavior change to grantors. Distribution is multi-channel — direct enterprise engagement with hospitals and managed care networks, medical-society and patient-advocacy partnerships for audience generation and content validation, digital channels including website, email, and social (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Instagram, TikTok), and event-based listings.

The company is private and PE-backed, having received a strategic investment from DW Healthcare Partners in January 2023 and debt financing from Lafayette Square in April 2024 and approximately $2.98M from Stellus Capital Management in May 2025. In May 2024 MLG acquired Talem Health to expand accredited CME into rural and underserved communities. The firm is headquartered in New York City with operations in Allentown, PA, and holds ACCME Innovation Partner status with an in-house ACCME Site Surveyor.
