Special Interest Groups

OSTEOPATHIC

Purpose

The focus of the Osteopathic SIG will be to promote collaborative professionalism with the American Osteopathic Association and to prevent the disenfranchisement now and in the future of osteopathic physicians from the AAHPM who are certified by the American Board of Hospice and Palliative Medicine (ABHPM) as well as those osteopathic physicians who will have their primary osteopathic specialty medical boards and wish to advance their specialization in Palliative Medicine with board certification.
