2 We've fought hard to be here and to show that there is a better way of life with chiropractic. However, to do what we do best, both for ourselves and our patients, we must document better. Coding & documentation problems in the chiropractic profession continue to grow exponentially as noted in the OIG reports. Chiropractic offices continue to leak large sums of money unnecessarily, due to poor coding practices. Audits are on the rise. Chiropractors, CAs, and chiropractic billers receive no formal education or training in coding. There are currently no programs for the certification or training for chiropractic coding. Hand-me down training is the standard, and it can kill an office.
