NBOME’s Special Commission on Osteopathic Medical Licensure Assessment has been formed and will immediately commence its work to review the COMLEX-USA examination program, evaluate defensible alternative pathways for verification or assessment of fundamental clinical skills and other competencies, and assure that the COMLEX-USA licensure examination pathway continues to evolve with the rapidly changing practice of osteopathic medicine, osteopathic medical education and health care. The Commission is structured to be representative of perspectives from across the UME-GME-Licensure continuum, including student representatives and public members/patient representatives.
"We are very fortunate that those selected to serve on the Commission bring extraordinary wisdom, passion, and experience to this important task and extend our thanks to the medical education, accreditation, regulatory and practice communities for their strong support in assembling the Commission."Special Commission Chair, Richard J. LaBaere, II, DO, MPH, FAODME
