We do accept assignment from Medicare. They usually send the check directly to our office. The service that Medicare usually will cover for Chiropractors is ONLY manual spinal manipulation. Medicare pays 80% of their allowable fee once the deductible has been met. You are required to pay the deductible and remaining 20% as well as any non-covered services. Our office completes and flies the forms for Medicare at no charge.

Please inform us of any secondary insurance you may have. We will assist you if you need help in filing.
