Mission Critical: Acupuncture Bill Summer 2025

Hello Acupuncture Community

June, July, and Aug 2025 will be key months for FSOMA fundraising and for members to meet with their local legislators.  Keeping the Acupuncture Bill and our issues front and center in the next legislative session.

Florida Acupuncturists, patients and students had a very positive legislative session in 2025, but the big prize to UPDATE the Practice Act remains unfinished.  The massive support from FSOMA members and students made a huge difference this year.

Mission critical this summer for FSOMA members and the profession is to replenish the FSOMA PAC – contribute what you can (monthly) on ZEFFY and plan to visit key legislators who shape and influence Florida’s health policy.  Getting facetime with your local legislators and providing campaign $upport provides visibility for your practice, your profession, and your patients.  Fundraising goal $50k – three months – about $50 monthly from ½ the membership…We are counting on everyone’s help.

In 2024-2025. FSOMA members rallied and won passage of HB 803 in the Florida House.  This was the first time is 25 years a bill was adopted by the Florida House of Representatives to modernize the Acupuncture Practice Act.  It included authority and protection for Acupuncturists to bill for evaluation and management of acupuncture services, to order and prescribe products used in Acupoint Injection Therapy, to bill for direct supervision of services in the office, and several more key improvements to update the statute.

The Senate failed to hear HB803/SB1722 in committee this year.  The legislative calendar simply expired in the Senate.  Next steps…FSOMA will reintroduce an Acupuncture Bill in both the House and Senate at the beginning of the next legislative cycle [Fall 2025].  Acupuncturists have a lot of momentum and legislative support going into the next session.  We expect a repeat of passage in the House and no slow-down in the Senate.  Let’s get this done in 2026.  FSOMA is here to lead the fight for Acupuncturists – when the profession stands shoulder-to-shoulder it is formidable.

Important updates to your account and the website platform

 

Hello FSOMA Acupuncturists! 

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our new website platform for our valued members and the public! Your patience throughout this transition period has been greatly appreciated.

After diligent effort with our tech team, we’re proud to announce that we are launching a more stable and robust platform, designed to enhance your user experience and offer an array of new features and resources. Whether you’re accessing information or engaging with our community, we’re confident you’ll find the new website to be much more user-friendly. As we embark on this exciting journey together, we extend our gratitude for your ongoing support, which fuels our mission to serve and empower professional acupuncturists in Florida. 

Please take a moment to read through the important updates regarding membership renewal and payment processes outlined below. Your involvement is integral to our collective success, and we’re excited to grow and innovate together through this new platform. Thank you for being a vital part of the FSOMA community!

If this is the first time you are renewing your membership since March 1st, 2025, because of the changes to our system all memberships that were due to automatically renew will instead expire on their next renewal date. 

To keep your account active you must log in with your username and update your credit card information by manually re-registering your membership through our new gateway when it is time for your renewal. This is only a one time process. 

At the time of your first login you will be prompted to reset your password. Once logged in, just navigate to the Become a Member page and select your membership level and follow the checkout process.

For payment to process smoothly, please make sure that your payment method is active, and you have sufficient funds. And if you need to automate your payments in our new platform for the future, simply go to your Account Profile while logged in and under the ‘My Subscriptions’ tab select your active subscription and make sure auto-renew is toggled on.

As your renewal date gets close you will receive email reminders about this process and the steps to take. You will also receive reminders if your membership has lapsed as a helpful nudge in case you missed the initial reminder emails, so stay on the lookout through this process to help us help you keep your account active. 

Your ongoing support is what drives us to continue working to secure YOUR future as a professional acupuncturist in the state of Florida and to provide the best possible services to our members. The more we grow the more we can do and the new website will help take us there!

Please keep an eye out for future communications and updates as we move forward.

Best regards,

Your FSOMA Board of Directors
