There are currently only 1 ACGME FP/EM program (Christiana Care in Delaware). Not sure if there are any new ones planned for the future.
There are 3 AOA FP/EM programs that participated in the AOA Match this year (2007). The DO Opportunities website list 5, but I think two of the programs (St Barnabas and Grandview) did not participate in the AOA match this year
The 3 DO programs are:
St James Hosp & Health Centers in Olympia Fields, IL
Pontiac Osteopathic Hospital in Pontiac, MI
Frankford Hospital in Philadelphia, PA
According to the 2007 NRMP, Christiana had 2 spots but both went unmatched. According to the 2007 AOA match data, the 3 programs had 8 spots combined, and all 8 were filled through the match.

Hey I heard they were adding more osteopathic slots. I just checked the acofp res guide and this is what I found:
View Program # Residency Program Name State

I was talking to the res director for frankford at a res fair the other day and he said they just got approved to accept 4 residents per class now. NYCOM had a rep there and he said they take 2 residents a year there. I don't know anything about the other programs.

If you do EM/FM can you apply and recieve Health Service Corp scholarship?
Can you get the scholarship = no.
Can you get your loans paid back AFTER residency if working in FM, sure.
They won't let you do a combined residency (they won't even let you do med-peds!😱 ).
You know what would be great...not sure they would allow it though. Do a FM/EM residency, work full time FM at a NHSC site so you can get loan reimbursement. Then work one overnight shift a week in the ED. Loans would be paid off fast that way, but I have the feeling the NHSC might not allow you to work outside of your primary contract with them.
Thats what I was thinking, do their minimum...say 36-50 hours a week and try to squeeze 10-20hrs working at a ER in a local hospital for some extra cheddar. They probably wont let you make a decent living though.
