Medicare
Medicare does not pay for everything that happens at a chiropractic visit. This is what it pays and what it does not.
Manual adjustment of the spine, when it is medically necessary. It is the only chiropractic service Medicare covers.
After the Part B deductible, you pay 20% of the adjustment. A supplement plan, if you have one, may cover that share.
Exams, x-rays, soft tissue therapy and exercises. If a service is not covered, we tell you first and give you a notice in writing.
Directions
A step-free entrance and parking spaces near the door. If someone drives you, they can stop right at the entrance.

Frequently asked questions
We talk first, in Spanish or English. Then the doctor checks your posture and how your spine moves, explains what was found and proposes a written plan. The visit takes about 45 minutes and you decide whether to go on.
Like any health care, yes. Many people feel some tiredness or soreness afterward, and it usually passes soon. Serious risks are rare, especially in the neck, and the doctor explains them before you start. If you have another health problem, talk to your doctor first.
You feel pressure and, at times, a popping sound. If anything bothers you, say so and we stop: you can ask us to stop at any time. For anyone who prefers less force, there are instrument adjustments and a table that eases the movement.
The exam and what you want to be able to do decide it. There is no set number. After the exam, the doctor proposes a written plan and we review it together at each visit.
It depends on your plan. We bill Medicare for manual adjustment of the spine, the only chiropractic service Medicare covers. With other plans, call us before the first visit and we go over it together. See how fees work.
You have the right to a Good Faith Estimate. Ask for it: we give it to you in writing before the visit. You can also ask for an itemized receipt to send to your plan, which decides whether to reimburse part of it.

We answer within one business day, in Spanish or English. A family member can write for you. If you would rather talk, call us at (714) 555-0102.
