Medicare Uncomplicated: A Two-hour Guide for DCs (2025)
Medicare feels complicated until you see the pattern. In this fast, practical session, you will lock in what Medicare actually covers for chiropractors, how to show active treatment vs maintenance, and how to use the AT modifier and ABNs with confidence. We will decode PAR vs non-PAR choices, walk through notes that pass the sniff test, and cover the Medicare Advantage curveballs that show up in real clinics: fewer surprises, cleaner claims, calmer front desk.
Hour 1 Outcomes
Identify what Medicare covers for DCs and what it does not, in plain English
Handle Medicare Advantage basics that matter day to day, including maintenance scenarios
Distinguish active treatment from maintenance and document each so it is obvious
Decide PAR vs non-PAR with eyes open, including how each status affects fees and claims flow
Hour 2 Outcomes
Apply the AT modifier correctly so the story of medical necessity is clear
Use the ABN correctly, including when to issue, how to explain it, and how to bill after
Avoid common denial triggers like vague goals, time-based services that do not add up, and region conflicts with CMT
Leave with a Monday checklist for clinicians, front desk, and billing, so everyone stays aligned
