Expanding Medicare Coverage for All Chiropractic Services

This act aims to broaden the scope of chiropractic services covered by Medicare. This means Medicare beneficiaries will have access to a wider range of treatments offered by chiropractors, potentially improving their access to healthcare and reducing out-of-pocket costs. These changes seek to align Medicare with private insurance standards and other federal programs.
Key points
Medicare will cover more services provided by chiropractors, beyond just spinal manipulation.
The scope of covered services will align with what is legally authorized for chiropractors by state law.
Chiropractors will need to complete an online educational verification to have their services covered.
