On Oct. 27, Rep. Celeste Maloy (R-UT) visited Rocky Vista University College of Osteopathic Medicine (RVUCOM) in Ivins, Utah, to discuss the importance of osteopathic medicine and the challenges facing the physician workforce.

During her visit, Rep. Maloy met with osteopathic medical students and campus leadership to explore issues such as graduate medical education funding and access to care in underserved areas.

“Advocacy is essential to ensuring our students and future physicians have the resources and opportunities they need to serve patients,” said Campus Dean, Laura M. Rosch, DO, FACOI. “Engaging directly with lawmakers helps strengthen the future of osteopathic medicine.”

By facilitating these conversations, RVUCOM continues to empower students to understand their vital role in shaping the future of healthcare policy.
