AOMNC is the ONLY acupuncture and Oriental medicine professional organization that will NEVER charge a membership fee. Join this membership of qualified licensed acupuncture professionals, which is already the largest national coalition membership ever assembled.

AOMNC's mission is simple -- to support AP/OM changes to Medicare/Social Security Laws (Title 18) for well trained AP/OM practitioners taking their place as STATUTORY MEDICARE PROVIDERS making available financial access for 39 million Medicare Recipients and 9 million Federal Employees (Title 5) not to mention health care changes for 300 million Americans; to provide free access to links offering excellent benefits; access to lobbying efforts; and other services for the 'silent majority' of 'qualified acupuncture' practitioners.

Some vendors do in fact charge fees for their services. AOMNC will negotiate preferred prices for it's members.

A great Neuro surgeon in the West, turned Spiritual leader,said...."that in the Orient the people have the spirit, vision, eyes while in the West we have the material, legs, foundation." He further commented, "that in the Orient, people die from material hunger while being rich in sprititual food and in the West people die from overeating while lacking spiritual food."

What urgently needs to take place within the United States, is that the health care paradigm fully embraces and integrates Acupuncture/Oriental wholistic healthcare as practiced just about everywhere else in the world and not continue to give it meaningless lip-service with half-measures and untrained practitioners. The 'payers' both in government and private sectors need to cease and desist inappropriate reimbursement of the untrained and/or poorly trained who are attempting to practice this healing art and science which requires many years of study with appropriate clinical experience.

To paraphrase John Jay Chapman......'People who love soft methods and hate iniquity.......forget.......that reform consists in agressively taking the bone from the dog. Philosophy will never accomplish the task.'
