Deadline for Job Analysis Questionnaire Extended

Editorial Staff

GREELEY, Colorado -- The National Board of Chiropractic Examiners (NBCE) has extended the deadline for its study of chiropractic practice to November 15th. Chiropractors selected to complete a questionnaire concerning their practices are encouraged to complete the survey as soon as possible and return it to the NBCE.

The current survey is an update of the the NBCE's 1991 Job Analysis of Chiropractic. The new survey will seek to gauge the impact of managed care on chiropractic practice. This survey, like the 1991 compendium of information, will be a major reference document on chiropractic.

If you have received a questionnaire and have any questions concerning the completion of the survey form, contact Martin Kollasch, DC at 1-800-964-6223, ext. 337.

Although BCBS denies any wrongdoing, the company agreed to the settlement to avoid lengthy litigation – and you can get a piece of the pie.
