Access and concordance. Agreement with the plan and access
to the plan. These are the ingredients to favorable
outcomes with chiropractic care. In Fernandina Beach, access to chiropractic
is simple. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic invites back
pain and neck pain sufferers to share their pain
symptoms openly to foster a pain relieving treatment
plan to which they can they can agree.
CONCORDANCE IS A BIG KEY TO BEST CLINICAL OUTCOMES
Chiropractic services for neck and back pain have been proven
efficacious as many randomized clinical trials have been
completed. Chiropractic services are established as effective for back and neck pain relief. A new study reports on the satisfaction
of patients who either follow the recommended
treatment frequency guidelines or do not. Neck pain and back pain patients described
as “concordant” (5 or more visits during 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 frame 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 played a role
among other items for these patients. (1) Don’t allow

your appointments! Make your visits. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic knows the treatment plan with the Cox®

ACCESS TO CHIROPRACTIC SERVICES
Older adults who do not have such access to chiropractic
care are found to more frequently use some
medical services for spine issues. Medicare data of 39,278
chiropractic care users 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 (an increase
of 32.3 visits more annually) and were more likely to get
spinal surgery (5.5 more surgeries per year). Financially, this reduced
access to chiropractic care for spine issues resulted in higher
expense to Medicare: an extra $114,967 per 1,000 beneficiaries on medical
services (amounting to $391 million nationally). (2) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic
is open here in Fernandina Beach to relieve pain and save money on spine pain
relief services.
YOU AND YOUR INPUT MATTER
What
you share with your Fernandina Beach chiropractor is crucial
to your pain-relieving treatment plan. An Australian study of chiropractors
found that chiropractors utilize patient reported
outcome measures (PROMs) to guide the treatment plan
and evaluate the treatment response of low
back pain patients. (3) Tell your Fernandina Beach chiropractic honestly how
you are feeling. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic is listening!
