DO Day on Capitol Hill

DO Day on Capitol Hill is a unique opportunity to meet face-to-face with members of Congress and staff members on key issues that impact DOs and their patients.

The South Carolina Osteopathic Medical Society (SCOMS) and the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine Carolina participate in DO Day on Capitol Hill, which is typically held each spring in Washington, D.C. This is a valuable opportunity for DOs and osteopathic medical students to educate members of Congress and their staff about the pivotal role osteopathic medicine plays within the U.S. health care system. Participants will have the chance to engage with lawmakers and ask them to support legislation that is vital to the practice and principles of osteopathic medicine.
