If you have insurance and are choosing to access your insurance benefits, it is important to watch this short video on the keys to insurance success. It is our goal to only educate and advise you on what insurance companies are looking for when submitting claims. From our experience, we can tell you that insurance companies are concerned with specific information in a very specific order. To successfully submit your claims for consideration, it is vital that you answer all questions thoroughly otherwise there’s a possibility that your claims will be denied. It’s a fact insurance companies are more concerned about what you say as the patient and not what the doctor states. With that said the filing becomes critical and filling out your initial and all additional paperwork in an effort to get any future visits approved. Be specific with your ailments to matter how small or large. State every symptom you are feeling.

List out how your symptoms interfere with your daily life such as work, home and in your social life. It is vital that you keep your insurance company a way of reoccurring problems, symptoms and new injuries large or small. Areas of the neck, back, lower back and extremities requires symptoms in order to be treated.

Strelcheck Chiropractic Patient, Tara C., Crystal Lake IL

I started coming basically because of some abdominal issues and stomach problems and your typical stiff necked, stiff back but mostly a lump in my throat that I felt and had some serious testing done including a needle biopsy to my thyroid and nothing was helping. And after a few treatments here, the feeling of a lump in my throat was gone along with all of the other aches pains started disappearing after just a few treatments. I had been seeing a different chiropractor for a couple of years actually before I came to Strelcheck and it didn’t matter if you had a neck pain or back pain or a foot pain, it seemed to me like that chiropractor did the same treatment every single time whereas at Strelcheck they seemed to modify and have the treatment to go with the aches and pains that you have that day. They adjust your back or your neck and it’s painless and you just get up and feel so much better when you walk out the door. My name is Tara Calebris and I am a patient here at Strelcheck Chiropractic Center.
