Recent laws in New Jersey and California represent a disturbing trend that will negatively impact a practice’s ability to collect monies from patients, as well as expose them to significant penalties if the practice does not follow the mandatory guidelines to a T. Please be aware that a similar law may be coming to your state. The time to act is before the law is passed.
Publisher Blue Poppy Joins ChiroMall
Established in 1982, Blue Poppy Enterprises, Inc., is the world's largest English-language publisher of books and educational products about Chinese medicine and acupuncture. Starting with a single self-published, self-promoted book, Blue Poppy now publishes 83 titles - from translations of pre-modern masters to new contemporary clinical manuals that help bridge the gap between Western and Chinese medicine. With so many chiropractors integrating and referring patients to acupuncture care, these are vital resources for all chiropractors looking to increase their knowledge of Eastern medicine.
