Possible legal issues that need to be avoided:
 You need to take serious measures if you are not getting paid for the services offered. If
your bills are being repeatedly reduced by liability insurance carriers on the basis of your
services not being medically necessary, you might get into legal troubles in future.
 Denial or reductions in payment happens only when the insurer feels that your practice
is over-treating, doing improper coding or not documenting the service accurately. In
any of these cases, legal problems can arise for your practice therefore, it becomes
essential to evaluate and audit your business practice and look for solutions to solve
these issues.
 If insurers are subjecting you to post-payment reimbursement claims, you need to be
extra careful. Insurance companies are recouping payments made to doctors, deeming
them to have engaged in one or more of the above-mentioned areas of conduct.
 Any of the above acts can be deemed to constitute fraudulent misconduct on part of the
chiropractor and this might result in civil litigation or criminal prosecution. In case you
fail to take the required measures, such liabilities, reaching thousands of dollars can
damage the reputation of your chiropractic practice.
 If liability insurance carriers are not paying you for the services on a regular basis and
patients are pursuing legal actions to recover their civil liability claims, your practice
maybe in serious trouble. You will have to ensure that immediate corrective measures
are taken such as auditing of documentation and coding or auditing of your marketing
strategies.
 You are being considered a fraudulent provider if your liability insurance carrier is taking
pre-litigation depositions of you or your patients. Also, if multiple complaints have been
filed against you with the state licensing board, you need to invest time in assessing the
complaints and finding ways to comply with the state laws.
Chiropractors must ensure that the above-mentioned issues don’t turn into legal hassles for
their practice. These potential signs should be taken into consideration and special attention
should be given in order to solve them. However, due to time constraint and rise in number of
patients, chiropractors are seeking assistance from chiropractic medical billing services partner
to avoid legal issues
