Tom Campbell, DC, (R-Roy) is in his third term in the Washington State House of Representatives. He is serving again on the health committee and as vice chairman of three committees: state government, children and family services, and rules.

Rep. Tom Campbell supported the effort to place into law the "any category of provider" provision which requires all licensed providers to be included in all policies in the state.

"The all category of provider law is changing the health insurance industry in our state," he told a recent gathering. "It will help patients to choose what is best for them, not what's best for the insurance industry. This law is among my most satisfying accomplishments in the legislature."

Dr. Campbell is a Life graduate, and has owned and operated a chiropratic clinic is Spanaway since 1983. He represents the 2nd legislative district in Pierce County, Washington.

Are You Meeting the Chiropractic Standard of Care?

The term standard of care is a legal term and a medical concept. There is no single, universally recognized standard of care document or authoritative reference. The medical concept defines what practitioners should do in practice. The legal term used determines whether a practitioner failed to meet that expectation. This article examines the standard of care for the doctor of chiropractic.
