The Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine determined in 1976 that a continuing recognition of the men and women involved in health care, education and public service was merited and long overdue. Therefore, the Phillips Medal was established to be awarded annually in one or more of the following categories:
 
  • For osteopathic medical practice exemplifying the best tradition of family medicine;
     
  • For osteopathic hospital administration exemplifying the best tradition of humane, concerned administration and public involvement; and
     
  • For public policy leadership exemplifying the best tradition of democratic concern for the public good and public welfare.
 
The Phillips Medal of Public Service is named for the late J. Wallace Phillips and Jody Galbreath Phillips, longtime friends of Ohio University.
