Cranston RI Chiropractor Stephen M. Estner Named as Liaison to American Chiropractic Association's Local RI Liaison Program

CRANSTON, RI, September 08, 2010 (Press-News.org) RI chiropractor Stephen M. Estner was recently named as a local liaison for the American Chiropractic Association. The Association currently has 21 states participating as members, and recently added Alaska, California, Florida, Georgia, Minnesota, Mississippi, New York, Ohio and the US Virgin Islands to the program roster.

The focus of the ACA is to provide a support system to assist and collaborate within each state regarding insurance-related issues. An ACA appointed Doctor of Chiropractic Liaison member works with ACA staff and State leadership and organizations to address any specific challenges.

Dr. Estner said of his appointment to the Rhode Island ACA Liaison position, "It is an honor and privilege to represent the Chiropractors of the State of RI as the appointed member DC working as liaison to the American Chiropractic Association staff. This position is intended to maintain an open dialogue between RI insurance companies and the ACA. As chiropractors, we face many challenges on a daily basis with regard to the always evolving insurance and healthcare industry. Many of the issues and concerns are state specific. Therefore, by collaborating on an ongoing basis we stand the best chance to succeed in our practices and the profession as a whole."

The ACA will take the information gathered through this liaison program and work with appointed liaisons and member states to produce state-specific handbooks that will outline the process for handling insurance laws and appeals processes within their particular state.
