South Dakota Chiropractor Still in the Race

Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

Scott Munsterman, DC, remains in the running for a state seat, albeit not the one for which he originally campaigned. Dr. Munsterman, who finished a distant second to Lt. Gov. Dennis Daugaard in the South Dakota Republican gubernatorial primary on June 8, is now the District 7 candidate for the state House of Representatives. The South Dakota Republican Party selected him as its candidate to fill the seat occupied by outgoing District 7 Rep. Carol Pitts.

We interviewed Dr. Munsterman just prior to the gubernatorial primary. Read "Ready to Impact Health Care From the Inside" (May 20 issue) to learn about his political platform and thoughts on how the profession can play an ever-increasing role in health care delivery.

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.
