Current through Rules and Regulations filed through March 20, 2024

As stated in O.C.G.A. 43-9-16 and as amended by Section 1.1 of the Act, chiropractors who wish to practice acupuncture must meet the licensing requirements of the Act and the acupuncture rules promulgated by the Board. Chiropractor applicants must be licensed to practice as a chiropractor in the State of Georgia, have an active chiropractic license and be in good standing with the Georgia Board of Chiropractic Examiners. In compliance with the intent of the Georgia General Assembly, nothing in these rules shall be construed to prohibit a chiropractor who is licensed under Article 3 to perform acupuncture in Georgia from engaging in the practice of acupuncture. The Georgia Composite Medical Board, and no other examining board, shall have sole, exclusive and original jurisdiction over such chiropractors who have been granted a license to practice acupuncture in this State for the purpose of establishing standards for licensure of acupuncturists and for the enforcement of such standards of acupuncture through disciplinary action.

O.C.G.A. Sec. 43-34-63.
