Access and concordance. Agreement with the plan and access
to the plan. These are the ingredients to favorable
outcomes with chiropractic care. In New Roads, access to chiropractic
is easy. New Roads Chiropractic Center welcomes back
pain and neck pain patients to share their pain
symptoms honestly to foster a pain relieving treatment
plan which they will follow.
CONCORDANCE IS A BIG KEY TO BEST CLINICAL OUTCOMES
Chiropractic services for neck and back pain have been shown
efficacious via many randomized controlled trials. Chiropractic services are acknowledged
to be as effective for neck pain and
back pain relief. A new study describes the satisfaction
of patients who either adhere to the recommended
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 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 considered
“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) Don’t let
physical function make you discordant or hold you back from coming to
your visits! Don’t skip your
appointments. New Roads Chiropractic Center knows the treatment plan with the Cox®
Technic System of Spinal Pain Management that is most effective

back pain and neck pain relief. In New Roads, you have easy

ACCESS TO CHIROPRACTIC SERVICES
Older adults who don’t have such access to chiropractic
care are seen to more frequently use some
medical services for spine issues. Medicare data of 39,278
chiropractic care recipients who moved geographically from an area which
had more access to chiropractic care to an area with 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 a year) and were more likely to undergo
spinal surgery (5.5 more surgeries per annum). 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) New Roads Chiropractic Center
is open here in New Roads to relieve pain and save money on spine pain
relief services.
YOU AND YOUR INPUT MATTER
What
you share with your New Roads chiropractor is crucial
to your pain-relieving treatment plan. An Australian study of chiropractors
found that chiropractors use patient reported
outcome measures (PROMs) to formulate and adjust the treatment plan
and gauge the treatment response of lumbar spine pain patients. (3) Tell your New Roads chiropractic honestly what is going with you. New Roads Chiropractic Center is listening!
