Empowering Communities with Cacus
Hi, everyone,
The California Acupuncture Coalition has sponsored three bills this year: SB 944, AB 1949, and AB 2668.
- SB 944 provides stability for Medi-Cal funding for acupuncture services.
- AB 1949 removes the twice-per-month service cap, improving the effectiveness and continuity of acupuncture treatment.
- AB 2668 raises the required educational standard for acupuncturists from a master’s degree to a doctoral degree.
Please start reaching out to students, faculties, alumni, patients, colleagues, family members, etc. to encourage them to come out to the State Capitol on March 25 to give testimony during our bill’s hearing. The testimony will be very simple and will be as follows :
Patients: “Hello. My name is xxxx. I have been an acupuncture patient for XXX years and I am in support of SB 944.”
Acupuncturists: “Hello. My name is xxxx and I am a licensed acupuncturist in California. I am in support of SB 944.”
Please use the Google Form to fill out letters of support for our bills. It is very easy and takes less than one minute.
You can also print the attached flyer with QR code and put it in your practice to have patients sign the letters.
尊敬的针灸医师、针灸学生、针灸患者及社会各界友好人士，大家好！
California Acupuncture Coalition（加州针灸联盟，CAC）今年正在积极推动三项与加州针灸行业密切相关的重要提案。具体如下：
SB 944（提案人：州参议员 Scott Wiener）该法案将确保加州 Medi-Cal 项目所涵盖的针灸治疗能够持续获得资金支持，即使联邦政府没有拨款，加州仍可为针灸医疗提供保障。
AB 1949（提案人：州众议员 Alex Lee）该法案将允许针灸师 每年最多提供 24 次治疗服务，而不是目前 每月仅两次的限制，从而让针灸师在为患者制定治疗计划时拥有 更大的灵活性。
AB 2668（提案人：州众议员 Mike Fong）该法案将 逐步提高加州针灸师的教育与培训标准。到 2032 年，针灸教育/培训时数将从 3000 小时增加到 3300 小时，并设立博士级别的专业头衔 “针灸与中药医师” Doctor of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine（DAHM）。
我们诚挚邀请 加州的针灸医师、针灸学生、针灸患者以及社会各界人士 在网上签名支持这些提案。您可以 选择支持其中一个或多个提案。
