TIPS Fellows Convene at AOA Headquarters
by  John CrosbyNo presence information  on 6/15/2012 4:11 PM

The AOA hosted the annual meeting of the Training in Policy Studies (TIPS) Program at AOA headquarters today.  Jointly offered by the New York College of Osteopathic Medicine, the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine, and the AOA, TIPS is a year-long program for 2nd and 3rd year osteopathic postdoctoral trainees to familiarize them with federal and state policy-making processes and prepare them to participate in national and global health policy discussions.  In my remarks to the Fellows, I congratulated TIPS on its 10th anniversary and briefed them on the implications of the ACGME’s proposed Common Program Requirements on DO trainees.  Topics of discussion at today’s meeting included state and federal health care workforce issues, scope of practice of non-physician clinicians, and the impact of health information technology on medical practice. ​
