The correct answer is: 40 hours

To renew their license in Texas, a physician assistant (PA) is required to complete 40 hours of continuing medical education (CME) every two years. This requirement is established to ensure that PAs remain current with medical knowledge, skills, and best practices in the healthcare field. The CME hours can cover various topics relevant to the practice of medicine and the specific areas where PAs are involved. This requirement emphasizes the importance of lifelong learning in the medical profession, allowing PAs to stay updated with the latest advancements and enhance their competency in patient care. By completing these hours, PAs not only fulfill their licensing obligations but also contribute to improved healthcare outcomes in their communities.
