Second, I am in an area where the two major health insurance companies do not cover acupuncture. While I support 1st professional in theory, the logistics are not comfortable. I've seen our " growth " as a profession step on the very people who helped build the profession. sydnie Quote
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2010 Report Posted March 11, 2010 Sydnie, No one is talking about sending you back to school. There is no precedent for this. If there were, we should require all those with certifications to get their master's degree. This is a process and as such will most likely happen long after you retire. Michael W.
