CCE Planing Panel Meets in Chicago

Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

The Council on Chiropractic Education's panel on planning (POP) met Aug. 18-19 for a strategic planning session on the council's future.

CEE President James Winterstein invited key members of the chiropractic community to provide input during the planning meeting, where a draft of a "white paper" was begun. The participants have been invited to attend a second POP meeting in Chicago, Nov. 4, 1993, to discuss that draft. The finished document will be presented to the Council for consideration at a workshop during the CCE's January 1994 meeting.

Results of a feasibility study, conducted by the National Center for Higher Education Management Systems (NCHEMS) for possible accreditation of paraprofessional and postgraduate education, were also presented and discussed. The consensus of the meeting's participants was that the CCE should consider expanding its scope to include the accreditation of paraprofessional and specialty/postgraduate education.

Court Rules Against No-Fault Insurers - Again
Court Rules Against No-Fault Insurers - Again

New York's highest court of appeals has held that no-fault insurers cannot deny no-fault benefits where they unilaterally determine that a provider has committed misconduct based upon alleged fraudulent conduct. The Court held that this authority belongs solely to state regulators, specifically New York's Board of Regents, which oversees professional licensing and discipline. This follows a similar recent ruling in Florida reported in this publication.

Gaze Stabilization: Clinical Relevance for DCs
Gaze Stabilization: Clinical Relevance for DCs

Keeping our eyes smoothly focused while moving is no simple task because even the simple act of running produces head velocities in excess of 550° per second with head accelerations up to 6,000° per second. Failure to properly stabilize our eyes to compensate for rapid head motion could allow our eyes to over- or undershoot specific targets, which can result in blurred vision, nausea, impaired balance, and a greatly increased risk of falling.
