The proposed St. Padre Pio Institute for the Relief of Suffering, School of Osteopathic Medicine would be located on Benedictine College’s campus. It has yet to be accredited. 

“It is vital to train future doctors at a place like Benedictine College that understands the essential role of faith and morality in the sciences,” Stephen Minnis, president of Benedictine College, said in a news release. “The campus culture of community, faith, and scholarship that we have worked so hard to create will be the perfect home for the proposed Padre Pio medical school at Benedictine College.”

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
