Access and concordance. Agreement with the plan and access

outcomes with chiropractic care. In Manchester, access to chiropractic
is simple. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries welcomes back
pain and neck pain patients to describe their pain
symptoms openly to foster a pain relieving treatment

CONCORDANCE IS A BIG KEY TO BEST CLINICAL OUTCOMES
Chiropractic services for neck and back pain have been shown
efficacious as many randomized clinical trials have been
completed. Chiropractic services are accepted as effective for back and neck pain relief. A recent study describes the satisfaction
of patients who either adhere to the proposed
treatment frequency guidelines or do not. Neck pain and back pain patients described
as “concordant” (5 or more visits within any 2-month time period
or at least 12 visits during the year) or “discordant” (not having 5 or more
visits in a 2-month time period or 12 visits in a year) who were also
further defined by other demographics were followed. Most
chiropractic users with diagnosed neck or back pain were said to be
“discordant” with treatment frequency guidelines and their healthcare bills
for chiropractic care were only $434 versus $2555 for “concordant” patients. Physical
function issues influenced the discordant patients’ outcomes. (1) Do not let
physical function make you discordant or hold you back from making
your appointments! Don’t skip your
appointments. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries knows the treatment plan with the Cox®

ACCESS TO CHIROPRACTIC SERVICES
Older adults who do not have such access to chiropractic
care are seen to more frequently utilize some
medical services for spine conditions. Medicare data of 39,278
chiropractic care recipients who moved geographically from an area which
had more access to chiropractic care to an area which had less access
to revealed that these patients wound up experiencing
more visits to primary care physicians for spine issues (a rise
of 32.3 visits more a year) and were more likely to have
spinal surgery (5.5 more surgeries per annum). Financially, this decreased
access to chiropractic care for spine issues ended up higher
expense to Medicare: an extra $114,967 per 1,000 beneficiaries on medical
services (equaling $391 million nationally). (2) Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries
is open here in Manchester to relieve pain and save money on spine pain
relief services.
YOU AND YOUR INPUT MATTER
Sharing everything about your back pain experience with your Manchester chiropractor is crucial

found that chiropractors use patient documented
outcome measures (PROMs) to guide the treatment plan
and evaluate the treatment response of low
back pain patients. (3) Tell your Manchester chiropractic honestly how
