ASNY Insurance Forum a Success
In response to the rapidly changing world of acupuncture and insurance coverage, the Acupuncture Society of New York held its first forum on insurance-related issues. The meeting was on Sunday, March 25th, 2001 at the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine, Manhattan. The meeting was a resounding success, with over 70 practitioners and students in attendance. The panelists included Mark Feldman, DPM, from the Robert Plan Insurance Company; Steve Bernstein, LAc, ASNY Board member and member of ASNY’s Insurance Relations committee; Deanna Waldron, Esq., ASNY Vice-Chair and Michael Gaeta, LAc, ASNY Chair, who also moderated the discussion. The discussion was a lively and informative one, with many practitioners sharing their experiences with third-party payment.
