Dr. Sully's Words of Wisdom

Do you get what you pay for?

Do you get what you pay for? The cost of the cost.

Chiropractic wins, hands down. 395,641 patients were used to compare chiropractic costs and medical costs.  The substantial cost savings from chiropractic care resulted in a recommendation that health insurance programs re-examine chiropractic coverage in relation to medical coverage.

The researcher, after two years of research on these 395,641 patients said: "...we believe that the gap in overall cost experience between chiropractic and medical patients cannot easily be dismissed even by skeptics of the chiropractic profession."

In another report, based on school districts in California's San Diego County, the administrator said, "It's (chiropractic) one of the best benefits possible from a quality, quantity and pricing perspective." When a member survey revealed an 85% satisfaction rate with chiropractic after one year, coverage for chiropractic was integrated into the basic health plan for school districts in San Diego County.  Chiropractic care has also proven to lower worker's compensation costs while giving greater satisfaction.  The injured worker's got back on the job faster, with less cost, and had fewer relapses.

Is it just me, or is anyone else having a problem with customer service at some companies? Recently we got a letter from Lincoln that there was a problem with the head gasket in it's 1994 model and were extending the warranty to 100,000 miles. Well sure enough ours blew, but we were at 120,000 miles.  When I spoke with customer service, they basically said "too bad."  I did write a letter, but got no response. If any of you has had similar problem, let me know. There is strength in numbers.

Yours in health,
Lynne Sullivan D.C.
