DESCRIPTION
This class introduces financial considerations and the main funding options for setting up and running an acupuncture program. Financial models are presented that are currently used in programs around the country. Models include philanthropy, billed consultation or fee-for-service, postgraduate education and partnership with acupuncture schools. Advantages and disadvantages of each model are considered along with discussions of how they can be combined, and tips for identifying the institutional conditions conducive to success. Where an institution is interested in adding acupuncture service but has not yet decided on a model, discussion focuses on how to think about sustainable business options.
