The Board of Osteopathic Examiners, established by Chapter 786,
Acts of 1914, consists of five members appointed by the Governor for
three-year terms from a full list of members in good standing of the
Maryland Osteopathic Association (Code 1957, Art. 43, sees. 467-80).

The Maryland Board of Osteopathic Examiners investigates the cre-
dentials of an applicant for permission to practice Osteopathy within
the State and issues or refuses licenses. It holds two meetings each
year to examine these applicants whose credentials will not warrant
issuing of a license through the Previous Practice or Reciprocity Acts.
The Board cooperates with municipal and State officials in enforcing
the laws regulating the practice.
