Your first visit:
Your
first visit will last approximately 1˝ - 2 hours and includes a private
consultation with one of our doctors, a physical examination, two neurological
scans, and a pH saliva test. The initial consultation will be based on the confidential
patient information forms downloaded from our website and completed prior to
your visit. Completed forms may be faxed to 317-872-9303 or e-mailed to
kris@morterhealthcenter.com. If you intend to complete the forms in person at
our clinic, please arrive 15-20 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment
time.
During
your consultation, the doctor will discuss your needs in greater detail and
share with you what our clinic has to offer. You will then receive a complete
examination. This will include the following painless procedures: two neurological scans, reflex and
range-of-motion testing, and standard orthopedic and postural tests. If
necessary, the doctor may request x-rays as an additional diagnostic procedure.
Lastly, a pH saliva test will be collected to determine the alkalinity level of
your body. To ensure the accuracy of your pH test, please do not eat or drink anything except water for two hours prior to
your appointment time.
No
unnecessary tests will be performed. All tests we administer are necessary to
the complete understanding of what is involved with your case and will assist
your doctor in prescribing a complete wellness program.
Please bring
the following with you to your first visit:
- A photo ID
- Your insurance card if you would like us to file claims on your behalf
- A list of any medications or nutritional supplements you are currently taking
- All relevant confidential patient information forms, completed and signed
Payment and Insurance:
Payment
is expected at the time of service. It is important to us that our financial
arrangement be clear. It is our desire to support you in any way we can to meet
your financial obligations while you make a choice toward more perfect health.
Our
office will file insurance for all patients; however, we are not “in-network”
with any insurance providers. If your policy covers chiropractic, we would be considered
an “out-of-network” provider. To determine if and to what extent your insurance
policy covers chiropractic care, please use the “Health Insurance Chiropractic
Policy” form included in the New Patient Forms Packet or request a copy at the front desk. You will then
need to contact your insurance provider and complete the questions on the form
based on your particular plan of coverage. We
do not file claims directly to your insurance provider until the Health
Insurance Chiropractic Policy form is completed, signed, and returned to us.
We
also accept auto accident and Workman Compensation cases.
We
currently are not accepting new Medicare patients.
B.E.S.T.
Technique:
We
utilize a state of the art healing practice and comprehensive chiropractic
technique called Bio Energetic Synchronization Technique
or B.E.S.T. It is a gentle,
non-force procedure focused on neuro-emotional and neuro-musculoskeletal re-patterning that not only relieves
pain quickly, but also addresses the cause of the pain.
Treatment Schedule:
Once the consultation and all testing procedures have been performed, the doctor will ask you to schedule your next appointment as soon as possible. At your second appointment, your doctor will go over his or her 'report of findings,' including wellness recommendations and your customized treatment program so that you may achieve maximum correction in the shortest amount of time. Adhering to the treatment schedule prescribed assists you in getting better faster and staying better longer.
