Because they have yet to pass national legislation protecting the chiropractic profession, Japanese DCs are in a similar situation that U.S. DCs faced. We were fortunate enough to be able to pass chiropractic licensure state by state. The DCs in Japan must accomplish this nationally, which has proved to be an extremely difficult task. And in spite of their efforts, Japanese DCs are currently faced with two chiropractic professions.
Practice Growth and Management Forum Added to ChiroWeb
ChiroWeb has added the "Practice and Management Forum" to the growing list of "DCs only" forums. The Practice and Management Forum serves several purposes:
- It's a private forum where you can discuss topics such as billing, office management issues, marketing, successful practice ideas, general business procedures and other subjects related to the growth, management and success of a chiropractic practice.
- It's intended to foster more communication and create new relationships between doctors of chiropractic. DCs new to practice can get advice from the veterans on developing and maintaining a practice. It's also a place where experienced DCs can pick up some new ideas from those in the "trenches."
To access the Practice Growth and Management Forum, click the "Discussion Forums" button on the front page of ChiroWeb.com, then select "DCs Only Forum." You must be a registered user to access the forum. If you have not registered, or if you have questions about the new forum, please contact the forum webmaster (ubbadmin@dcmedia.com) for more information.
