What is Performance Chiropractic?
Performance Chiropractic is a hybrid training model which allows us to treat you as a whole person in any way you need. We are cash based which eliminates all insurance restrictions on the amount or type of care you may require. This allows us to take a holistic approach in our treatment methods. No matter what sports or hobbies you enjoy, we can tailor our treatment specific to your needs.
Through our performance chiropractic model we will get you out of pain and help you stay that way long term. We believe at our core that movement is the best medicine so we will take an active approach to your treatment to keep you active.
Why choose Sports Performance Chiropractic?
We are the best in Southern Pines. Simple as that.
You will not find another clinic that provides this level of care, 1 on 1, with one hour sessions and your goals at the epicenter. Our goal is to give you the confidence to reach your own goals, with us there to facilitate that in any way we can.
What will a session look like?
At an insurance based clinic, a chiropractic session may include a few minutes with the chiropractor, some exercises with support staff and some passive modalities. While passive modalities might feel good, they will not fix you.
At Sports Performance Chiropractic your session will be spent actually addressing your root problem and helping to fix it through exercise, education and manual techniques.
Can I do injury prevention or wellness sessions?
Most insurances do not cover musculoskeletal wellness or injury prevention sessions performed by chiropractors. However those services are so incredibly important.
At Sports Performance Chiropractic we are an active group who love being outdoors and as a whole have played almost every sport out there and understand your passion for them. It is much less expensive to prevent an injury through proper mobility and training than rehab one after it occurs. We offer wellness, maintenance and injury prevention to keep you happy, healthy and moving. Item descrichiropracticion
Does Sports Performance Chiropractic accept health insurance?
No, Sports Performance Chiropractic is out of network with all health insurances. You can still use your out of network benefits to submit a claim to your insurance and they will reimburse you directly based on their rates.
What is cash based chiropractic?
In a cash based treatment model, the chiropractor enters into a contract with the patient directly. The patient pays at the time of service allowing the therapist to focus all their attention on providing the best service and minimizing time spent on insurance reimbursement.
This also allows you, as the patient to know exactly what the treatment will cost you without any blind bills. While going through insurance, the amount billed will vary based on the codes billed each session. This often results in confusing bills for the patient based on these varied rates. Cash based billing eliminates all confusion and allows for clarity in decision making for the patient.
Will I end up paying more for cash based chiropractic?
Research says NO! Cash based chiropractic has demonstrated it requires less sessions to meet your goals, get you out of pain and get you moving better so overall the total cost ends up reduced to insurance based clinics! Twice a week for 8 weeks is not the right prescrichiropracticion for everyone! Of course, this will vary depending on your out of network coverage.
What is the difference between cash based and insurance based?
Cash based chiropractic has a lot of benefits over insurance based. There are no limitations on what type of services we can provide, the quantity of the services or the duration we feel you need them. This allows us to use our vast knowledge and training to give you the highest level of care in direct reference to your goals.
Sports Performance Chiropractic Chiropractors are out of network providers- what does this mean?
This just means the chiropractors here have not entered into a contract with individual insurance companies to receive reimbursement through their contracted rates. There are SO many insurance companies with varied rates and policies and regulations- Sports Performance Chiropractic’s energy is best spent on providing high level care.
You pay us directly out of pocket and you can then submit a claim yourself to your insurance. We will help to instruct you in this process, but by taking us out of the reimbursement equation it gives us the time to provide you with the highest level of care.
Can my insurance be billed for cash based chiropractic?
Sports Performance Chiropractic does not accept or bill through insurance. However most insurances with the exception of medicare, Medicaid and some HMO’s, will provide some payment for services received “out of network”.
Therefore you can submit your sessions at Sports Performance Chiropractic to your insurance company and they will reimburse you directly at their out of network chiropractic rates. The end goal of documentation and billing is the same however, to get paid in this system, it is the patient waiting for reimbursement instead of the provider.
What steps are involved in submitting a claim?
The process is actually quite simple! When you purchase a session with Sports Performance Chiropractic, we’ll do it for FREE! Our in-house biller handles talking to the insurance company and has an extremely high rate of success with submission.
Why would I choose to pay out of pocket when I can use my insurance at another clinic?
Cash based Chiropractic has actually shown to cost the patient less versus going through insurance. We provide only one-on-one treatment sessions for 60-minutes each visit. These one-on-one treatments may include dry needling, cupping, joint mobilizations and other manual techniques with the entirety of the session involving a hands on approach.
Many other clinics have their chiropractors seeing 4-5 patients per hour, vastly limiting any hands-on time. The sessions may be spent with a rehab aide training you on how to perform the same cookie-cutter exercises with no individualization and minimal results. They will try and book you 2-3 times per week for 8-10 weeks and still have lower patient satisfaction rates and worse outcomes toward pain relief and functional activity tolerance.
Sports Performance Chiropractic will require less overall sessions to meet your goals than traditional insurance chiropractic because of the increased time spent on your care. Come experience what chiropractic is really like with individualized, genuine, one-on-one care of a Doctor of Chiropractic.
