The Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Boards is hosting an online auction to support the national certification of chiropractic clinical assistants. Donated items valued at nearly $100,000 are offered.
"By placing the auction on the web, we are expanding the opportunity to participate to the entire chiropractic community," said Dr. Maggie Colucci, chair of the FCLB's auction. "We have been astounded by the generosity of so many donors. An amazing variety of items are available."
Some of the items include:
"This event will be held simultaneously online and during the Federation's Gala black tie dinner May 3 in San Francisco," Dr. Colucci announced. She went on to explain that the evening will mark the official launch of the FCLB Certified Chiropractic Clinical Assistant program.
Dr. Colucci continued, "We welcome anyone who would like to attend the Gala in person, or they can participate in the auction from the comfort of their own homes." Gala tickets are available on the FCLB's website, www.fclb.org.
Secure online bidding opens April 1 at www.biddingforgood.com/fclb. Auction items will close May 3, 2013, at 8:30 PM PDT.

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.

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.
