New Rules on Chiropractic Services Coverage


On June 22, 2019, Gov. Abbott signed SB 1739 into law. This law prohibits health maintenance organizations (HMOs) and preferred provider benefit plans from denying reimbursements for services provided by in-network chiropractors solely because such services are provided for chiropractors. The services must be within the scope of the chiropractor’s license. This law will apply to any health benefit plan that is delivered, issued for delivery, or renewed on or after January 1, 2020.
