The Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) is an accrediting authority for medical education programs in the United States and Canada. LCME is jointly sponsored by the Association of American Medical Colleges and the American Medical Association. LCME accreditation is a voluntary, peer-reviewed process of quality assurance.
