Osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) is a unique skill set consisting of physical manipulations that treat the neuromusculoskeletal system. Although OMM can improve patient outcomes such as functionality and pain, as well as increase physician reimbursement, its use is declining. Barriers to its use include a lack of proficiency, support, reimbursement, and time. Knowledge gaps remain as to how OMM training during graduate medical education (GME) affects OMM use.
