Surgeons and spine practices have begun to receive coverage denials for procedures and practices that were previously covered by insurance companies. This has become especially prominent in spinal fusion cases, where surgeons must have all the documentation of failed non-operative treatment on file. If your documentation from the hospital does not include the physician notes of conservative care through surgery, you will not be paid for the hospital stay or physician work, says Ms. Cataletto So, what can we conclude now about the role of chiropractic in Obamacare? Certainly the evidence-based cost-effectiveness trend will continue to support the inclusion of chiropractic care and Section 2706 will protect chiropractors and their patients from unwieldy restrictions as we’ve seen in the past. It’s past time American patients were allowed freedom of choice in healthcare and it’s past time chiropractors were allowed to compete on a level playing field in order to help millions of patients and save billions of dollars in our cash-strapped healthcare industry. apta.org/PTinMotion/NewsNow/2012/6/28/SupremeCourt/
