In New Zealand the Chinese Medicine profession is a regulated health profession under the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act (2003).
All Chinese medicine practitioners including acupuncturists must be registered with the Chinese Medicine Council of New Zealand (CMCNZ) and meet the Council’s registration standards in order to practise in New Zealand.
Practitioners must complete annual continuing practitioner development (CPD) to maintain an Annual Practising Certificate.

Since 1990, acupuncturists have been recognized as treatment providers by the NZ Accident Compensation Corporation, the New Zealand government health insurance scheme.
Everyone in New Zealand is covered by ACC’s no-fault scheme for injury from an accident. This includes children, beneficiaries, students, those who are working, unemployed, or retired.
The coverage helps pay for recovery costs, including treatment, home and work assistance, and income assistance.
Many private and work-based health insurance schemes also cover at least part of the cost of treatment.
