Past, Present, and Future in Chiropractic
At the ICA Convention
by John Maltby, DC, FICA
This year I added some License Renewal Hours (12) at our ICA Annual Meeting. I have several College Presidents speaking on the Past, Present and Future of Chiropractic. Also, I have Dr. Deed Harrison speaking on Research, the new PCCRP X-ray Guidelines, and the new ICA Best Practices.
Our ICA Annual meeting is during April 27-30, 2007. The ICA Legislative day is Thursday, while the Rep Assembly and Board meetings are on Friday April 28th. The seminar hours will be Saturday and Sunday (April 29th-30th).
As special speakers, I invited all the Presidents of the ICA Affiliated Colleges, Dr. Carl Cleveland III (Cleveland Colleges), Dr. Don Kern (Palmer), Dr. Fab Mancini (Parker), Dr. Gerry Clum (Life-West), and Dr. Guy Riekeman (Life University). All, but Dr. Guy Riekeman, were available to speak on the Past, Present and Future of Chiropractic.
While the other national association has been riding the fence on the new “Red Flags Only” x-ray guidelines and has actually been supporting CCGPP, ICA has been protecting the rights of practicing DCs to x-ray their patients to assess subluxation and to provide a program of care as needed. In 2006, ICA members wrote the PCCRP X-ray Guidelines www.pccrp.org, wrote the only detailed critique of CCGPP, and have started a competing more thorough, more fair, Best Practices/Guidelines for clinical practice.
I hope that all our ICA members will support us by attending the 2007 ICA meeting in Washington, DC.
