Why does research support chiropractic care as the best choice of care for back pain?
Back pain accounts for over $100 billion in annual U. S. health care costs.
A 4-year study compared more than 700,000 health plan members with additional chiropractic coverage benefits and 1 million members of the same health plan without the chiropractic benefit and found:
Members with chiropractic insurance coverage had lower annual total health care expenditures per member per year.
Chiropractic coverage was associated with a 1.6% decrease in total annual health care costs at the health plan level.
And patients with chiropractic coverage had lower average back pain episode related costs.
This study proved chiropractic care is clinically beneficial and also reduces overall health care costs.
And remember, H. J. Ross Company is the expert with over 40 years of experience in dealing with a wide range of chiropractic billing issues.
