Health Care Reform Causing a Mess

All over the news rages the health care reform debate. How will this effect spinal care. There are so many options for care. Which ones will survive and which ones will be cut. The best care is spinal wellness and prevention. However, in 15 years of practice this appears low of people's priority list. Usually someones waits till they have a symptom or pain and seek help. These problems usually occur way before the pain starts. I mentioned this in previous posts. This concept is especially important once the pain and dysfunction is minimized ( notice I did not say fixed, because once there is a dysfunction you can always flare it up.). People go back to the lifestyle which caused the problem and expect it to be fine. WRONG WAY THINKING. Your thoughts.
