Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

The Legislative Research Commission (LRC) of the state of North Carolina has created a Chiropractic College Study Committee within the LRC's Health and Human Resources Study Grouping. The LRC has allocated $25,000 to the College Study Committee to investigate the need and feasibility of establishing a chiropractic college in North Carolina.

If it is decided that a chiropractic college is needed and its establishment is feasible, the best method(s) of accomplishing that end, including most economical and advantageous placement of such a college within the University of North Carolina, will be investigated.

The committee has agreed to use consultant services in its study, and will report its findings and recommendations to the LRC no later than January 6th.

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

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.
