Have you thought about getting referrals from Drs?

Getting 'in' with even one Dr can bring in 3-5 new patients/week. MDs have thousands of patients in their practices. Many MDs are willing to refer, if they knew about you & trusted you. But most acupuncturists aren't getting referrals because they don't know how. You just need to know how to get 'in' with them.

What you will learn:

  • The 3 biggest mistakes many acupuncturists make when trying to get 'in' with MDs
  • How to get past the gatekeepers and 'in'
  • One simple thing that can multiply the # of MD referrals you get
  • How to get 3-5 patient referrals/wk consistently from MDs and other providers

Whether you accept it, avoid it or live somewhere in between, insurance coverage has become a defining issue for our profession. Patients increasingly expect to use their benefits, practitioners want to be compensated fairly for their time and expertise, and the system itself remains – at best – fragmented. The encouraging news is that coverage has expanded in meaningful ways. The challenging news is that reimbursement, across the board, remains inadequate.

Understanding Facial Spasms and Tics
Understanding Facial Spasms and Tics

Facial movements are essential for communication, expression and function. But when these movements become involuntary, they can lead to conditions that are not only physically uncomfortable, but also socially and emotionally distressing. Today, we’re taking a closer look at three common facial motor disorders – blepharospasm, hemifacial spasm and facial tics – and how both Western medicine and TCM view and treat them.
