House Resolution 498 is a commemorative measure that officially recognizes the 125th anniversary of the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine (AACOM). The resolution honors the contributions of osteopathic medical students and physicians (DOs) to the American healthcare system, particularly their focus on holistic and preventative care.
