Exploring the Value and Benefits of Osteopathic Recognition in Residency Programs

Episode Summary: In today's episode of POMA DOes… we sit down with three directors of osteopathic education who work in residency training programs that have osteopathic recognition through the ACGME. They share their own journeys into osteopathic recognition, the value and benefits that osteopathic recognition brings to their residents and their programs, experiences and challenges they have experienced with the application process and documentation, and resources they have found and use on a daily basis to support their accreditation.   Key Takeaways: Osteopathic recognition provides extra value to a residency program, including recruitment, billable procedures, diversification of the education provided, enhanced patient care, and promoting the osteopathic profession. Many resources are available to support osteopathic recognition. Networking with other DOEs and osteopathic organizations, such as POMA, are invaluable. POMA's Postgraduate Engagement Committee is focused on supporting residents, fellows, program faculty in the Commonwealth. POMA is working to enhance networking, mentorship and resources for the postgraduate community. Let us know how we can support you!
