A First of It's Kind

Ohio becomes the first state to cover acupuncture with Medicaid. In response to the epidemic of opioid addiction largely created by the overuse of opioids for pain management in the medical community, Ohio is now allowing access to natural pain management in the form of acupuncture. Citing successful and growing studies on acupuncture, the program will allow its members to have covered acupuncture for low back pain and migraines. We're next New York, let's get it going!
