Workers’ compensation chiropractic is a type of chiropractic care that is covered by workers’ compensation insurance. This means that employees who are injured on the job can receive chiropractic care without having to pay out of pocket.
Chiropractic care can be very effective for treating a variety of work-related injuries, such as back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, and headaches. Chiropractic adjustments can help to reduce pain, improve range of motion, and speed up the healing process.
To receive workers’ compensation chiropractic care, an employee must first see a doctor to get a diagnosis and treatment plan. If the doctor recommends chiropractic care, the employee will need to get a referral from their doctor. The employee can then go to a chiropractor who is authorized to treat workers’ compensation patients.
The chiropractor will work with the employee to develop a treatment plan that is specific to their needs. The treatment plan may include spinal manipulation/mobilization, Diversified Techniques, Sacro-Occipital Technique, and other modalities, such as exercise therapy, physical therapy, and massage therapy.
The chiropractor will bill the workers’ compensation insurance company for the services they provide. The insurance company will then reimburse the chiropractor for the cost of the services.
Employees who are receiving workers’ compensation chiropractic care should be aware that they may have to go through a pre-authorization process before they can start treatment. This means that the employee will need to get approval from the workers’ compensation insurance company before they can see a chiropractor.
Employees who are considering workers’ compensation chiropractic care should talk to their doctor to see if it is right for them.
If you have been injured on the job and are considering chiropractic care, talk to your doctor to see if workers’ compensation chiropractic is right for you.
Most plans cover spinal adjustments, manual therapies, and rehabilitative exercises.
Any work-related injury affecting the musculoskeletal system may qualify. It’s best to consult with your employer or insurance.
This depends on your workers’ compensation plan. Some require a referral, while others may allow direct access to chiropractic care.
The length of care is determined by your recovery progress and the specifics of your workers’ compensation policy.
Typically, you must report the injury, file a workers’ compensation claim, and get approval for chiropractic care.
This varies by state and insurance policy. In some cases, you may select a chiropractor within the insurance network.
You may appeal the decision or pay out-of-pocket. Some chiropractors offer payment plans or sliding scales.
Chiropractors provide detailed treatment notes and progress reports required by workers’ compensation insurance.
Yes, but you may have to switch to private insurance or self-pay.
Your employer may receive updates on your treatment status and work restrictions but not detailed medical information.
