Warning About Offering Free Chiropractic Services
Especially to Medicare Patients.
A number of chiropractors offer free exams or other services to new
patients;
be careful if you extend these offers to Medicare patients.
In 2002, the Department of Health and Human Services issued a Special
Advisory Bulletin ruling that providers who offer
remuneration—including free or discounted services, with a retail value
of more than $10, in order to influence an individual’s selection of a
Medicare or Medicaid provider—may be liable for civil penalties of up
to $10,000. Specifically included in this bulletin were discounted
medical services, which would include exams, adjustments or massage
services, among other items.

withhold his support from an organization that is striving to
improve conditions within his sphere."
