Access and concordance. Agreement with the plan and access
to the plan. These are the keys to favorable
outcomes with chiropractic care. In Auburn, access to chiropractic
is easy. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. invites back
pain and neck pain patients to share their pain
symptoms openly to foster a pain relieving treatment
plan to which they can they can agree.
CONCORDANCE IS A BIG KEY TO BEST CLINICAL OUTCOMES
Chiropractic services for neck and back pain have been shown
effective as many randomized clinical trials have been
completed. Chiropractic services are established as effective for neck pain and
back pain relief. A recent study reports on the satisfaction
of patients who either adhere to the suggested
treatment frequency guidelines or do not. Neck pain and back pain patients were said to be “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 period
or 12 visits in a year) and their characteristics were documented. Most
chiropractic users with diagnosed neck or back pain were considered
“discordant” with treatment frequency guidelines and their healthcare costs
for chiropractic care were only $434 versus $2555 for “concordant” patients. Physical
function issues played a role
among other items for these patients. (1) Don’t allow

ACCESS TO CHIROPRACTIC SERVICES
Older adults who do not have such access to chiropractic
care are found to more frequently utilize some
medical services for spine conditions. Medicare data of 39,278
chiropractic care recipients who moved geographically from an area with more access to chiropractic care to an area which had less access
to found that these patients wound up having
more visits to primary care physicians for spine issues (an increase
of 32.3 visits more a year) and were more likely to get
spinal surgery (5.5 more surgeries per year). Financially, this decreased
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) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C.
is open here in Auburn to relieve pain and save money on spine pain

YOU AND YOUR INPUT MATTER
What
you share with your Auburn chiropractor is important

found that chiropractors use patient reported
outcome measures (PROMs) to formulate and adjust the treatment plan
and determine the treatment response of low
back pain patients. (3) Tell your Auburn chiropractic honestly how
