On Jan. 12, the ACA launched a free educational Webinar designed to help doctors of chiropractic improve their Medicare documentation.

"There seems to be a tremendous amount of confusion within the profession regarding Medicare," McClelland said. "This two-hour Webinar should provide a sound basis for clarifi cation of these requirements and provide a good starting point for improving our documentation error rate."
