Doctors of chiropractic — use this form to support the Chiropractic Medicare Coverage Modernization Act

The Chiropractic Medicare Coverage Modernization Act (H.R. 2654) would allow Medicare beneficiaries access to the chiropractic profession’s broad-based, non-drug approach to pain management, which includes manual manipulation of the spine and extremities, evaluation and management services, diagnostic imaging and utilization of other non-drug approaches that have become an important strategy in national efforts to stem the epidemic of prescription opioid overuse and abuse.

H.R. 2654:

• Provides patient access to all Medicare-covered benefits allowable under a chiropractor’s state licensure.
• Requires that DCs complete a documentation webinar.
• Appropriately defines a Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) as a “physician” in the Medicare program.
• Is bipartisan legislation, introduced by 16 cosponsors from both political parties.
