Serving as the professional family for more than 5,000 osteopathic physicians (D.O.’s) and osteopathic medical students, the New Jersey Association of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons (NJAOPS) promotes public health, advocates for D.O.’s and encourages scientific research all while providing best in class education. NJAOPS is accredited by the American Osteopathic Association for AOA Category 1-A CME credits and by the Medical Society of New Jersey for AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ for continuing medical education.
Continually striving to advance the distinctive philosophy and practice of osteopathic medicine, NJAOPS stands for the following comprehensive principles:
Formulate Best Practices Health PoliciesActively working with the state legislature and administration, NJAOPS promotes quality health care for New Jersey. NJAOPS carefully monitors state and federal legislative activities that affect how you practice medicine. We aggressively respond on your behalf, bringing the critical concerns of osteopathic physicians before legislative and regulatory leaders. We fight for your best interest on issues of patient safety, quality of care, scope of practice, reimbursement and medical liability. We are proactively involved in healthcare reform initiatives on the state and federal levels, supporting—and often challenging—legislators in the decisions that matter most. We listen to your issues. We voice your concerns. We fight for your rights. And we train you to be a force for positive change.
To learn more about how you can be personally involved, visit our new Legislative Alert Center. There you can review summaries of key bills and speak out on important issues. Also, keep in mind that your support of the Jersey Osteopathic Political Action Committee (JOPAC) is an important investment in the future of osteopathic medicine in our state.

Produce Quality Education and TrainingThe New Jersey Association of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons serves to ensure that the continuing medical education activities meet or exceed requirements established by the American Osteopathic Association's Counsil on CME.

NJAOPS continues to develop new and innovative ways to provide CME opportunities for family and specialists throughout New Jersey and neighboring states.
