In a landmark development, Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) has reached a $2.8 billion settlement to resolve antitrust claims brought by health care providers, including chiropractors. The lawsuit accused BCBS of dividing the nation into exclusive regions and limiting competition, which resulted in lower reimbursements for providers. Although BCBS denies any wrongdoing, the company agreed to the settlement to avoid lengthy litigation – and you can get a piece of the pie.
Chiropractic Commercial Airs During the Masters
The Foundation for Chiropractic Progress’ (F4CP's) new 30-second, consumer-focused golf commercial aired 17 times during the Masters Tournament, April 8-14 on The Golf Channel, reaching 1.5M+ households. The commercial showcases the impact of a golf swing on the human body and how chiropractic helps golfers, and people of all ages, maintain their health.
As part of the F4CP's 2024 campaign, “Made Possible by Chiropractic,” the foundation is producing four additional consumer-focused commercials launching during the major championships of pickleball and rodeo. The commercials, estimated to reach up to 100 million households, will build public awareness regarding how everyone can follow the lead of athletes who consistently benefit from chiropractic care.
The commercials encourage consumers to find a doctor of chiropractic near them on F4CP’s national Find a Doctor (FAD) Directory. Inclusion in the directory is among the benefits enjoyed by F4CP individual and group members. Members can also utilize the commercial on their social media pages and in their clinic reception rooms.
