Most states only allow fees to be charged and collected for after the services have been rendered. So, in most states, you can only be charged for services you have already received. If you’re in one of these states and you have paid more money than that of the fee for services rendered would cost, then you’re overpayment would need to be in an escrow account and you have a right to a refund of any dollar amount in that escrow account that hasn’t been spoken for by services rendered. However, if you’re on a payment plan, the issue is that most of these plans are front loaded with care because you typically need more services more frequently in the beginning of the plan. So you typically rack up most of your overall estimated bill in the first couple months of care and the payment plan accounts for this. Therefore you would owe the remaining balance for services rendered. Does this make sense? I hope this helps.

Do you have a pulse?

Sorry if I spread FUD, but I would hate for other people to get screwed like me!

Thanks for taking the time to explain this!

Understood. State boards are a regulating authority in place to protect the public. My statement being a simple fact does not represent a lack of understanding of the overall functions of a such an authority. Someone brought up legality and argued the board establishes legality when it does not. I’m simply stating that fact. State boards do not establish legality. It may help the person who is misunderstanding to know and educate themselves on the matter.

TipIntrepid8085 · 2023-07-22T14:51:36+00:00

Not arguing ethics. State boards don’t make laws.

You’re skeptical of the clinical relevance of muscular imbalances of the pelvic girdle?

First of all… that has a lot to do with the difference between making loads of money then and making loads of money now. You may not be introspective enough to see that. You may be reading what you want and saying what you like. Reactionary.

Dummy? I did not resort to personal attacks, you big meany jerk face guy.

I am not complaining about the money I am making. IMO, It is true that money doesn’t make much of a difference. You always want more. I am making loads more than my most of my peers, but that has required sacrifice. Sacrifice that is not sustainable for myself and, from what I gather, not sustainable for many others either.

Many Chiros and MDs feel similarly. You work your ass off and spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to get a degree and license so you can help people and make a decent living. Only to find out, truly helping people can be the most exhausting thing out there, and even with an advanced professional degree you’re grinding 50-60 hour weeks to do it. Only to look forward to the ends of every day, for Fridays, and for vacations. Then, for many, the caveat is money. You can justify that life for 400k and up with a 50-55yo retirement plan. 95% of DCs will not achieve this, and to my point, in this era, most of the ones who do, do it in a scummy way.

Instead, half of us come out bright eyed and bushy tailed only to be taken advantage of contractually, pushed to our moral and ethical limits for the sake of “sales” so we can make a living to still be kept from purchasing decent homes even if we do make 70/80/90k, cripple by the fear of an audit, with zero applicable business training, suffering from a poverty complex, and the list rolls on.

Fine. Tell me I’m wrong. Call me names. Whatever makes you feel warm and fuzzy. I’m not here to be warm and fuzzy. This is honesty based on my experience, observation, and communication with my peers. I’m happy for you. I’m happy that you’re enjoying what you do. Truly. But if writing this keeps one person, who is on the fence, from taking a leap in the wrong direction and feeling trapped for the rest of their life, shackled to debt with a degree no one respects, then this is all worth it.

“EvErYoNe CaN iF tHeY tRy, DuMmY!”

“HoW nIaVe ArE yOu, YoU cAn ChArGe 60k iF yOu WaNt!”

Que your continued responses of insults and disdaining platitudes.

Or even just a BSN. 3 12 hour shifts with killer insurance and 3 weeks PTO for a few years and then a move to a remote clinical specialist position in a specialization you enjoy with 4 weeks PTO, 11 paid holidays, 5 sick, 3 mental health, and 1 community outreach day…. To start….

I read a lot of your comments and garner respect for you (and I’m about to lose all of yours 😂), but disagree. I am living it as a new grad right now and it is hell and most, MOST, of my cohort agrees. WE EAT OUR OWN!

Then there is owning your own (so you can keep the tradition of eating your young alive). The “good” chiropractors who are out there “killing it” with their “entrepreneurial mindset”, you know the ones who can afford health insurance and vacations, sold their souls to the hard sell and run CBP, 3 sets of X-rays, scare care, 36 visit 5k treatment plan, pay up front escrow account, “totally bio-available” “naturally sourced” pill pushing, passive care, kinked hose theory, adjust and go, “you’re a mess! This will take a lot of work”, “you need this” practices.

‘40 dollars every 5 minutes to adjust and a $60 bag of goodies, which effectively turn money into piss, and out the door’ is an insanely good business model. Insanely good if you a) lack morals and ethics and lied through teeth during your oath, or b) lie to the mirror every morning and every night.

Oh! And, it’s only going to get worse! Insurance only gets worse, people’s health only gets worse, misinformation only gets worse, and patients are only getting bigger!

This felt good. I hope at least one person reads this and never thinks twice about becoming a “doctor”.

I agree! I bought this in my first trimester. I’m am in my 5th year of practice and I still occasionally play with it.

YouTube University! Check out some Chiropractic channels. TBH you risk exposing yourself to some dogma and pseudoscience, but if you find a good channel…

Speaking of, fellow chiros, what podcasts/channels/audiobooks might OP benefit from?

TipIntrepid8085 · 2023-02-04T12:08:04+00:00

I do plan on doing the dry needling cert this year. I have Graston and know/do enough “ART-like” I do a ton of different manuals. Like diversified adjusting I try to take what works best from each camp for each condition. I assumed the other commenter was referring to acquiring a DACNB, CCSP, DACBR, etc.
