為将针灸纳入奥巴马美国全民健保的“基本健康福利”范畴，請您盡一份力
目前全国上下關心中医的人都在发动尽所能及的力量以电邮的方式向美国联邦 卫生部呈请将针灸纳入全民健保的“基本健康福利”范畴。详情请阅读以下全美中医公会的背景材料。
我们在此强烈呼吁我们华人行动起来，尤其是受益于中医医术的病 人们出手点击
发 出挺针灸的呼声。感谢大家对中医事业的关心. 西医工会坚决反对我们的提案，但是明顯是出於經濟利益的原因。很多病比如疼痛，西醫沒有好的療效， 而簡單的中医针灸就可以有很好療效，所以有那麼多被西醫轉越o中醫的病人。但中医还有待于更好宣传,让更多的人少花钱、又少痛苦的得到治愈.
联邦卫生部听取民意制定“基本健康福利”政策的期限一月三十一日。 时不待我，机不可失，期望各位火速即时行动！
您的支持不但可以使您本人受益， 也可能通過立法， 使更多忍受痛苦的人，包括您的家人和您的孩子，在將來有機會更好的受益於針灸。

To whom it may concern，
Essential Health Benefits: In 2010, President Obama signed the Affordable Care Act, a health insurance reform law intended to ensure access to quality and affordable health insurance for all Americans. Starting in 2014, most health plans will be required to offer a comprehensive package of items and services to patients, known as "essential health benefits” (EHB). Under the new law, EHB must cover certain specific services including emergency services, maternity and newborn care, prescription drugs as well as preventive and wellness services, among others.
The AAAOM strongly supports designating acupuncture as an EHB. Our full position statement is available in the Governance section of our website at aaaomonline.org. If you are able to contribute financial support to this effort, which will be solely used to further publicize and generate action on this issue, please click here or contact us. To participate in committee work or related research projects, please contact us at info@aaaomonline.org.
Public Input is Needed: The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is currently accepting input regarding their approach to establishing EHBs. A strong public show of support for acupuncture as an essential health benefit will be noticed by policymakers and will lay a solid foundation for future federal acupuncture initiatives.
Take action now: Ask your patients to send an email to the address below to show their support for EHB. Also, send your own email as a patient showing your support. Emails should request that acupuncture be designated as an essential benefit service and should share the benefits of acupuncture and its cost effectiveness.
