Primary Source Verification of Licensure

The Board of Osteopathic Licensure in ("Board") requests that the public utilize the following link to verify the licensure of an Osteopathic physician or a Physician Assistant: https://www.pfr.maine.gov/ALMSOnline/ALMSQuery/SearchIndividual.aspx?Board=383. This link will take you directly to the Board’s ALMS Agency Licensing Management System (“ALMS”) Online Services. 

The Board of Osteopathic Licensure attest to the accuracy and timeliness of the data provided on its website. Data is transmitted in real time from the Board's ALMS database and is secure.

In addition, beginning in 2022, the Board has utilized the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) Federation Credentials Verification Service (FCVS) as a partner in its licensing of osteopathic  physicians in Maine. Physicians initially licensed in Maine after February 2022 have had their medical education, post-graduate training and examination history primary source verified by FCVS. Before February 2022, the Board accepted but did not require the FCVS core credentials product and conducted primary source on its own including medical education, post-graduate training and examination history. Use of the Board’s website for documentation of primary source verification of education and training meets the current NCQA guidelines.

This statement affirms that primary source verification of medical education, post-graduate training and examination history has been performed as part of the licensure process and we encourage you to print it and retain it in your files.
