Editor's note: The following article was first published in our sister publication, HealthLeaders. It bears examining where osteopathic medicine is heading, considering the single accreditation system for GME programs that has brought osteopathic and allopathic physicians together and the growth seen in osteopathic medicine over the past decades.
