NBCE Diplomate Certificate Status Clarified

Horace C. Elliott

The NBCE Board of Directors has announced that those individuals who received an NBCE Diplomate certificate prior to February 1983 may rightfully use that designation. However, those who completed the National Board exams after this date, and received an NBCE Certificate of Attainment, are not eligible to use the term "Diplomate," but rather are designated National Board of Chiropractic Examiners certificate holders.

Unauthorized use of the NBCE Diplomate credential constitutes a fraudulent action. The NBCE takes whatever measures are within its scope of power to prevent the misuse of NBCE certificate or transcript information; beyond those measures, regretably, it can assume no responsibility for the assertion of inaccurate credentials by individuals in the field.

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.
