State legislation that authorizes any healthcare profession is known as the Practice Act. In order for a profession to establish a recognizable national presence and be integrated into mainstream medicine, all the state Practice Acts must evidence consistency. The extent to which state Practice Acts fail to exhibit consistency can inhibit the ability of the profession to grow and become successful. We looked at the histories of other health professions, along with the 45 acupuncture Practice Acts in the USA, in order to understand the time worn paths that lead to integration in the mainstream and how the acupuncture profession might benefit.
授权任何医疗职业的州立法被称为《执业法》。为了使一个职业在全国范围内建立起可识别的影响力并融入主流医学,所有州的《执业法》都必须体现出一致性。州《执业法》缺乏一致性的程度会抑制该职业发展并取得成功的能力。我们研究了其他健康职业的历史,以及美国的45部针灸《执业法》,以便了解通向融入主流的长期路径以及针灸行业可能如何从中受益。
