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.
ChiroMaster 2000 Awards Contest Coming Soon
This summer, Dynamic Chiropractic will kick off its annual ChiroMaster website awards contest to showcase the best and most creative individual chiropractic sites on the Web. As in previous years, sites will be judged for their ease of use, functionality, quality (and quantity) of chiropractic-related information, and their ability to tell the chiropractic story in a way that is interesting and insightful.
All doctors of chiropractic, including previous winners of the ChiroMaster award, are encouraged to submit their site for inclusion in the contest. Watch for a more comprehensive article on the ChiroMaster awards in an upcoming issue of Dynamic Chiropractic.
