Deadline for Job Analysis Questionnaire Extended

Dynamic Chiropractic 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.

Should You Use Cash, Loan or Lease for Equipment Purchases?
Should You Use Cash, Loan or Lease for Equipment Purchases?

Some doctors thrive in a personality-based clinic and have a loyal following no matter what services or equipment they offer, but for most chiropractic offices who are trying to grow and expand, new equipment purchases help us stay relevant and continue to service our client base in the best, most up-to-date manner possible. So, regarding equipment purchasing: should you lease, get a bank loan, or pay cash?

Chiropractic at Risk Globally
Chiropractic at Risk Globally

There has long been an attempt by those who are not legitimate doctors of chiropractic to usurp the title of chiropractor from those who have earned their degree from an accredited chiropractic program. This generally happens in countries where the local doctors of chiropractic have yet to pass legislation requiring a degree from an accredited institution. The result is essentially two chiropractic professions. Nowhere is this danger more pronounced than in Japan.
