Thanks to the comprehensive efforts of osteopathic advocates and stakeholders, congressional support for the Fair Access In Residency (FAIR) Act, H.R. 2314, is growing. Just this month, Representatives Glenn Thompson (R-PA), Mike Rogers (R-AL), Steve Cohen (D-TN) and Don Bacon (R-NE) agreed to cosponsor H.R. 2314. This important bipartisan legislation ensures that Medicare-funded residency programs accept DO applications and their licensing exam, the COMLEX-USA. Advocate today for your representative to cosponsor and pass the FAIR Act to ensure graduate medical education (GME) transparency and parity for DOs! |
