Delegation of adjunctive services by chiropractors

What it does

Summary by the Legislative Reference Bureau, the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Under current law, a licensed chiropractor may, under certain circumstances, delegate to chiropractic technicians or certain other health care professionals the performance of services that are preparatory or complementary to the practice of chiropractic, including taking and preparing preliminary patient histories or providing physiotherapy treatment. This bill allows licensed chiropractors to delegate the performance of these services to individuals who have completed a training program for medical assistants accredited by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies, a national or state medical association, or another entity approved by the Chiropractic Examining Board.
