Mastery: developing (Level 2)(based on Certificate)

Standard quality and infection control procedures — implement independently and consistently across a full daily patient caseload in an established acupuncture clinic.
Comprehensive medical histories and general health assessments — conduct autonomously using refined intake interviews and patient-reported data in routine outpatient settings.
Acupuncture modalities including moxibustion, cupping, guasha, and electro-acupuncture — administer with reduced oversight, selecting tools appropriate to each patient's presentation.
Anatomical and proportional point locations — identify accurately across diverse patient body types and positions, accounting for common contraindications in a community health context.
Individual treatment plans — develop for patients with familiar condition profiles by integrating clinical findings, patient goals, and evidence-based acupuncture strategies.
Treatment outcomes — evaluate at follow-up appointments and adjust point selection or modality to optimize therapeutic progress for routine cases.
Regulatory compliance requirements at the local, state, and federal levels — monitor and apply to practice documentation and billing procedures in an independent or group practice.
Time management and patient scheduling — coordinate across concurrent cases to sustain clinical throughput while maintaining individualized care quality.
Critical thinking and judgment — exercise when distinguishing acupuncture-appropriate conditions from those requiring referral to other healthcare providers.
Electronic medical and office suite software — use proficiently to maintain accurate patient records, generate reports, and support administrative functions in a clinical practice.
