Legislation Introduced to Increase Medicare Coverage of Chiropractic Services
ACA reported on Thursday afternoon that legislation to increase Medicare coverage of chiropractic services has been introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives. Championed by ACA and introduced by Reps. Brian Higgins (D-N.Y.) and Tom Reed (R-N.Y.), the Chiropractic Medicare Coverage Modernization Act of 2019 defines doctors of chiropractic as physicians under the Medicare program and allows DCs to bill Medicare for the full scope of services allowed by their state license.
