Chinese medicine/Acupuncture job posting web address

[Guest guest]

Hello all,

 

I am working on a project that needs to prove there are jobs or opportunities

out there after graduating from a TCM program.

 

I would really appreciate if anybody forwards me the web links to such job

postings, especially Canadian job postings.

 

Thank you and best regards,

 

Mort

Hi Mort!

 

I know this doesn't help, but the best information out there is that

compared to the (over?) supply of TCM graduates there are essentially

*no* jobs or opportunities in TCM. Open your own office.

 

A few years ago there was some activity in drug detox but this requires

an additional certification and comes and goes with the economy.

 

I work full time in private security and keep a small office to see my

patients by appointment.

 

Regards,

 

Pete

Yes, Pete.

I worked in the no-fault clinics last year in the

New York City area, but a lot of them closed down

after a large insurance billing scandal. They were

paying new LAcs about $25-30/hour for a 10-hour day

for 3-5 days/week.

After this, many LAcs had to start their own

offices, or move out to the 'burbs.

Hi John!

 

No-fault clinics? I have not heard this terminology, what are no-fault

clinics?

No-fault clinics are these mini hospitals, set up

mainly in urban areas in the NE US, where certain

states' insurance laws let people seek a large number

of medical treatments after an auto accident. NY State

has very liberal no-fault (personal injury protection)

laws.

You get into an accident, and you are referred to a

store front on a busy street, and you receive chiro,

acup, and medical treatments, all in the same visit,

while you lie upon a small treatment bench, usu.

separated by curtains from the 10-20 other beds in the

same room.

Insurance pays for all of this, and this set up paid

NY LAcs very well in their heyday- the early 90's,

when a LAc could make $45-50/hour for a 50-hour week

working in these places. They fell into disrepute when

certain groups, like the supposed " Russian mob, " faked

many accidents in order to bill $$$$$$$ like crazy.
