ChiroLocator Goes International

Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

Chiroweb.com's Chirolocator has been expanded to include chiropractors from outside the U.S. DCs and patients can now locate a friend or colleague abroad with just a few keystrokes.

There are four ways visitors to the ChiroLocator can find the name and address of a local chiropractor: Users can search by a DC's last name, first initial (e.g., Smith, J); by city/state (limited to the first 15 letters in a city's name); by zip code (limited to chriopractors located in the U.S.); or by city/province/country for international DCs. The more information entered, the more restrictive the search results will be.

Chiroweb.com prohibits those who use the referral directory from collecting names for commercial use. Users must agree to the policy before conducting a search on the ChiroLocator. This policy protects chiropractors from receiving unsolicited or "junk" e-mail by third-party vendors.

To access the ChiroLocator, visit chiroweb.com's home page and click on the "Referral Directory of DCs" link. Users can also visit the ChiroLocator directly at www.chiroweb.com/locator.

Corporate Medicine’s Attack on Chiropractic
Corporate Medicine’s Attack on Chiropractic

The chiropractic profession is under a sophisticated and relentless assault from corporate medicine, so strategically executed that most don’t even recognize it happening. The campaign is powerful, calculated, and well-funded, demonstrated by its covert tactics and the millions being invested to carry it out. Corporate medicine's endgame wants only two things from chiropractic: all our patients and all our money – and it is getting it.

Chiropractic Management of a Recalled Cervical Disc Implant
Chiropractic Management of a Recalled Cervical Disc Implant

Over the past two decades, more than 18 million spinal surgeries have been performed in the United States, and cervical disc replacements represent a fair share of those. Device recalls due to design flaws can place patients in difficult clinical situations, especially those who are symptomatic and reluctant to undergo revision surgery. This case highlights the role of chiropractors in managing complex postsurgical patients, particularly those with recalled spinal implants.

UnitedHealthcare Removing Prior Authorization for Chiropractic
UnitedHealthcare Removing Prior Authorization for Chiropractic

UnitedHealth Group, parent company of UnitedHealthcare, has announced sweeping changes to its prior-authorization (PA) requirements that will eliminate the requirement for chiropractic care and numerous other healthcare services by the end of 2026. Doctors of chiropractic, other providers and patients have long lamented prior authorization requirements because they can delay needed treatment, limit access and even cause some patients not to pursue care.
