The Chiropractic Council on Education (CCE) has elected their new officers.
John Miller, D.C., president of Palmer College of Chiropractic- West has been elected as president; James Winterstein, D.C., president of National College of Chiropractic has been elected as vice president; and Carl Cleveland, III, D.C., of Cleveland Chiropractic College is new secretary/treasurer.
We wish these new officers success as they endeavor to serve the CCE, and through their posts -- the chiropractic profession, and ultimately the public they serve in setting and regulating standards of soundness and quality in the education of students of chiropractic with the purpose of producing competent, primary health care practitioners.
Recent laws in New Jersey and California represent a disturbing trend that will negatively impact a practice’s ability to collect monies from patients, as well as expose them to significant penalties if the practice does not follow the mandatory guidelines to a T. Please be aware that a similar law may be coming to your state. The time to act is before the law is passed.
With estimates showing over 30 million Americans affected by peripheral neuropathy – and a significant portion underdiagnosed – it’s increasingly likely that chiropractors are already treating these patients.

Each year, ICD-10-CM is updated on Oct. 1. For 2026, there are 74,179 total codes, with 487 additions, 28 deletions and 38 revisions. Code changes are based on date of service, not the claim submission date. Services performed on/after Oct. 1 must use the new codes. While no changes affect the common spinal or extraspinal codes most frequently used by DCs, several updates may still affect your claims – particularly for comorbidities, referred pain, or trauma cases.
