American University of Complementary Medicine is an unaccredited school in Beverly Hills, California that teaches homeopathy, Ayurvedic medicine, Asian body work and traditional Chinese medicine.

Legal status

AUCM is a legal degree giving-body and students may be able to practice alternative medicine under strict guidelines within the state of California.[1] However because of not being accredited, an employer may not accept their credentials. Most health insurance plans do not cover alternative medicine. In almost every state in order to even practice the programs mentioned someone must hold an M.D/D.O. or D.C. degree as well as being licensed and bonded by the state.
