Hawaii Ordered An Acupuncturist To Stop Practicing. Three Years Later, He Still Was 0 Mike Hashimoto, an architect of the state’s regulation of acupuncture, asked the state to intervene in a billing dispute last year despite his agreement to not treat patients.
In early 2022, Mike Hashimoto made a complaint to the state agency in charge of regulating insurance that Geico had shortchanged him for acupuncture treatment he provided to a woman who had been in an accident.
Geico demanded a hearing on the complaint, and eventually Hashimoto withdrew it.
What was remarkable about the case was that Hashimoto made the complaint involving his acupuncture practice to the same state department that three years earlier had ordered him to stop practicing acupuncture.
