The Board of Osteopathic Examiners was established in 1914. The
Board is composed of five members appointed by the Governor from
a full list of members in good standing of the Maryland Osteopathic
Association. The term of office is for three years (Code 1951, Art. 43,
sees. 428-441).
The Maryland Board of Osteopathic Examiners on receiving applica-
tions for license to practice Osteopathy within the State, investigates
the credentials of the applicant and if they meet with the require-
ments, a license is issued by the Examining Board. Two meetings are
held each year for the examining of such applicants whose credentials
will not warrant issuing of a license through the Previous Practice or
Reciprocity Acts. The examining Board cooperates with municipal
and State officials in enforcing the laws regulating the practice.
