"I know many of you are tired of reading about all of the negative issues occur-ring in healthcare. I know that compliance has become a dirty word best associated with having a tooth pulled sans Novocain. However, I am here to tell you that there is way to accomplish compliancy in your office. There is a way to regain your vision and mission for chiropractic. And most important to your patients, there is a way to achieve miracles in your practice once again. The answer is the National Academy of Chiropractic Coders, NACC.

"Billing and coding can be confus-ing, frustrating, and frightening if you have not been taught the cor-rect way to do it. The NACC is here to help cut through the coding myths and misconceptions that exist out there today, while giving the step-by-step help that is needed for you to enjoy being a practicing chiropractor and get paid properly for it."

After staying out of practice for a couple of years while I taught and wrote, I decided to go back into practice in 2009.

I practice what I preach. I am receiving maximized reimbursements from insurance companies, and I am enjoying being a chiropractor more now, than I ever have at any previous point in my career. And I’m here to tell others that they can too. This is the best time to be a Chiropractor and I would like to help you prove it.
