How do I check an acupuncturist's license in North Carolina?

Search the practitioner's name on the North Carolina licensing board's website. Most states license acupuncturists through an acupuncture board or the medical board. Every listing here also shows its NPI number, which you can look up in the federal NPI Registry at npiregistry.cms.hhs.gov.

Does insurance cover acupuncture?

Coverage depends on your plan, so call your insurer and ask about acupuncture benefits before your first visit. Medicare Part B covers acupuncture for chronic low back pain, up to 12 sessions in 90 days and 20 a year, when the provider meets Medicare's rules. If a practice is out of network, ask for a superbill you can submit yourself. See our cost and insurance guide.

Listings come from the U.S. National Provider Identifier (NPI) registry, a public federal database of healthcare providers (how we use it). They haven't been checked against a state board yet, so confirm licensure and availability directly. Request a correction or removal.
