October is National Chiropractic Health Month (NCHM), an opportunity to recognize the importance of musculoskeletal health and the role chiropractors play in helping patients stay active and healthy.

This year’s theme, “Joint Efforts,” highlights the importance of lifelong joint health and the role chiropractic care plays in helping patients maintain mobility, manage pain, and stay active.

Joint pain and stiffness can affect mobility, independence, and quality of life. The good news is that small lifestyle changes can make a meaningful difference:

Stay active: Regular movement helps maintain joint flexibility and reduce stiffness.

Build healthy habits: Balanced nutrition, adequate sleep, and hydration support overall joint health.

Seek conservative care: Chiropractors help patients manage musculoskeletal pain, improve mobility, and explore nondrug treatment options.

This October, the Missouri Chiropractic Physicians Association joins the American Chiropractic Association in encouraging Missourians to take an active role in their joint health.

Healthy joints support healthier lives. Keep moving, Missouri!

By now, you're aware that Missouri's Medicaid program will eliminate coverage for chiropractic services effective July 1, 2026.

We know this decision directly affects your practice and the patients who rely on you for care, and we want you to know that MCPA is fighting this on every front.

WHAT THE MCPA IS DOING

In response to this cut, MCPA has launched a coordinated advocacy effort, including:

We are meeting with the Governor's Office, the Department of Social Services, and MO HealthNet on Tuesday, July 7th to make the case directly to decision-makers that this cut harms patients and increases downstream healthcare costs. We will share an update on the outcome of that meeting.

We are meeting with legislators (including budget chairs in the House & Senate) to demand restoral of the cuts at the earliest opportunity. We have issued a press release to bring public attention to the impact of this decision and are actively engaging with media outlets across the state to keep the story in front of policymakers and the public. This has garnered significant attention from media outlets throughout the state.

We are running a social media campaign to mobilize patients, members, and the broader public around this issue, and we encourage you to amplify these messages within your own networks.

We are hosting a webinar July 9th at 6:30 PM to walk members through the situation in detail, answer questions, and outline how you can get involved. To get signed up to attend, please click the link below.

We recognize this is frustrating, and that frustration is justified. This cut was a decision made by the Missouri General Assembly and the administration, not a reflection of the value chiropractic care provides. MCPA is committed to pushing back on this decision and working to restore coverage, and we need your voice in that effort.

Please review the attached materials and don't hesitate to reach out with questions. We'll be in touch soon with additional details and ways you can get directly involved.

8 AM - 12 PM: Making Your Documentation Work for You: From Basics to Self-Auditing

The saying, “If it isn’t written, it didn’t happen,” couldn’t be more relevant for healthcare practices. Poor documentation can lead to major issues during audits, as incomplete or unclear records may not hold up to scrutiny. Chiropractic boards and third-party payers set specific documentation standards, making it essential to know what’s required and who will review your notes. The Office of Inspector General (OIG) also recommends that providers self-audit to ensure compliance with these standards. This session offers practical strategies to help you enhance your documentation skills, making your records audit-ready and strengthening your practice’s overall compliance.

1 PM - 5 PM: Brilliant Basics: The Key to Higher Reimbursement and Lower Risk

Brilliant Basics gives chiropractic teams the practical skills to run a more compliant, efficient, and profitable front office. This four-hour course simplifies patient workflows, coding, documentation, Medicare, billing, and collections so staff can prevent costly mistakes and communicate with confidence. Attendees leave with proven procedures and an action plan they can put to work immediately.

06/17/2026

Missouri chiropractors and their patients received devastating news: chiropractic services have been cut from Missouri Medicaid, effective July 1, 2026.

This decision was made without transparency, without public debate, and without notice to providers or the patients who depend on this care. Thousands of Missouri's most vulnerable residents will lose access to chiropractic services at the start of the new fiscal year.

MCPA is fighting back. We are actively working with members of the Missouri General Assembly and the Governor's office to restore this critical coverage. We will not stop until chiropractic care is back on the table.

More updates to come. Stay informed. Stay engaged.

Dr. Mark Sanna the CEO of Breakthrough Coaching will present: The Do's and Don’ts of Integrative Practice.

Attendees on Thursday will learn to recognize common compliance risks, billing errors, and operational mistakes in integrative practices.

You'll be able to explain the rationale and benefits of multidisciplinary practice models for patients and providers, distinguish between chiropractic-only, medical-only, and whole-being health multidisciplinary care paradigms.

Course Description

The healthcare landscape is rapidly evolving, with increased collaboration among chiropractors, medical physicians, physical therapists, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants becoming a practical necessity for comprehensive patient care.

This continuing education program provides Missouri chiropractors with a clear, compliant, and strategic roadmap for developing, owning, or participating in multidisciplinary practices (MDPs) within Missouri’s unique and progressive legal environment.

This course examines the philosophical, clinical, operational, and legal foundations of integrative practice, emphasizing that multidisciplinary care is not a departure from chiropractic principles, but rather an extension of conservative, patient-centered care.
