Summary of Bill S 106
Under the current Medicare system, chiropractic services are limited and not fully covered, which can create barriers for patients seeking this type of care. By expanding coverage to include all services provided by doctors of chiropractic, this bill aims to improve access to chiropractic care for Medicare beneficiaries and potentially reduce healthcare costs by promoting preventive and non-invasive treatment options.
The Chiropractic Medicare Coverage Modernization Act is designed to address the growing demand for alternative and holistic healthcare options and recognizes the important role that chiropractors play in the healthcare system. This bill is non-partisan and focuses on improving healthcare access and options for Medicare beneficiaries without imposing additional costs or restrictions. Overall, Bill 119 s 106 seeks to modernize Medicare coverage to better meet the needs of patients and promote a more inclusive and comprehensive healthcare system.

I think it's good that they're trying to help doctors of chiropractic with this, but I'm not sure how it will work or if it will really make a difference. #confused #S106 #MedicareCoverage

I just don't get why they're trying to push this bill through. I mean, why should chiropractors be covered under Medicare for all their services? It just seems like a waste of resources to me. Plus, I'm not sure I trust chiropractors to provide the same level of care as medical doctors. This bill just doesn't sit right with me. Did you know that under this bill, chiropractors would be able to provide services like X-rays and MRIs?
