## Abstract

The Maslov index in the semiclassical Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization rule is calculated for one-dimensional power-law potentials. The result for the inverse square root potential is compared with the recently reported exact solution. The case of a spherically symmetric power-law potential is also considered.
