🚨 California is proposing to ELIMINATE acupuncture coverage for Medi-Cal patients — again.

Acupuncture helps people manage pain, avoid opioids, and heal. Cutting it won’t save money — research shows it actually reduces emergency room visits and other expensive treatments.

New research has demonstrated that acupuncture reduces the symptoms of PTSD in combat veterans. I am so proud to be able to serve veterans in the Oroville area through the VA's community care program!
