Describing services accurately
Explain what your practice does in plain, factual terms: the evaluation process, the types of care you provide, how treatment plans are set and how progress is reviewed. Let patients understand what a visit involves without suggesting particular results.
Avoid claims that chiropractic care cures conditions, speeds recovery by a set amount or replaces other treatment. Such statements are difficult to substantiate and may conflict with professional and advertising rules in your state.
Coverage varies by state
Workers’ comp systems treat chiropractic care differently. Some states limit the number of visits, require authorization after a set point or have specific rules about whether a chiropractor can serve as a treating provider. These differences are a common source of confusion for patients.
Educational copy that tells patients to confirm coverage with their adjuster before beginning care, and that explains your practice’s process if authorization is needed, helps avoid surprise bills and frustration.
- Whether your state allows chiropractors as treating providers in workers’ comp
- Any visit limits or authorization requirements
- How your practice confirms coverage before treatment
- What happens if authorization is denied
Coordinating with other clinicians
Injured workers frequently see several clinicians at once. Describe how your practice communicates with physicians, therapists and other providers, and how you share notes with patient authorization. Coordination reduces duplicated care and conflicting advice.
When an injury may need imaging, specialist evaluation or other care outside your scope, explain how you refer. Patients and attorneys respect practices that recognise the limits of their role.
Medications and supplies
Chiropractors generally do not prescribe medications, but your patients may be taking prescriptions from other clinicians. Pointing them to the free /medications and /prescription-delivery guides can help them manage those prescriptions while mobility is limited.
If your practice works alongside prescribers, they may be interested in the provider mail-order pharmacy program at /mail-order-pharmacy, the most requested provider offer on the site.

Frequently asked questions
Is chiropractic care covered in workers’ comp?+
It depends on the state and sometimes on the claim. Some states limit visits or require authorization, so patients should confirm coverage with their adjuster before starting.
Can our listing say chiropractic care works for back injuries?+
Avoid efficacy claims. Describe your services and process instead, and check your state’s professional and advertising rules.
Do chiropractors appear in the same listings as physicians?+
Listings are organised by modality, so readers looking for chiropractic care see chiropractic practices in their area.
Does the site bill for chiropractic visits?+
No. The site never bills for care. It charges only a monthly marketing subscription.
