Chiropractic advocate, author and speaker Keith Wassung has been awarded the honorary Doctor of Chiropractic Humanities degree from Sherman College of Chiropractic, a rare honor given by the college to noteworthy individuals. The degree was presented during Sherman College's 125th Commencement Ceremony on June 21, 2014.
Recipients of the Honorary Doctor of Chiropractic Humanities degree have influenced, initiated and/or carried out specific humanitarian/philanthropic activities that have significantly contributed to or influenced the chiropractic profession and/or humanity at-large. Sherman President Edwin Cordero, DC, reviewed Wassung's accomplishments and approved the recommendation this spring.
Wassung is a nationally known author and speaker in the field of health education and research. A former national drug-free weightlifting champion, he turned to chiropractic health care after being diagnosed with a near fatal health condition. His recovery led him to research, write and lecture about the scientific principles of chiropractic.

There is another big player on the scene: the iliacus.
Two closely related viruses of herpes simplex, HSV-1 and HSV-2, can infect the human body. HSV-1 mostly infects the gums and skin, although it can cause more serious infection in the brain. HSV-2 mostly infects around the genital area. Infection with the virus can be unsightly and painful, especially for HSV-2.
What’s the simplest way to ensure prompt payment for your claims? Ensure that the insurance payer has no reason to deny them. Submitting a “clean claim” from the start can have a more significant impact on your net collections than any other step in your billing workflow. Net collections and accounts receivable (AR) can improve significantly when claims are clean from the start.
