| Popis: | The unprecedented demand for medical services in the United States, coupled with the increasing involvement of governmental agencies in paying for them, has led politicians and others to press for the inclusion of chiropractic services as an alternate method for providing health care in programs sponsored by the federal government. There is reason to believe that the public, the politicians and the physicians are in large measure ignorant of or indifferent to the fundamental problems involved in such a proposal. A review of existing information relative to the theory, scope and quality of chiropractic practice and the education of chiropractors leads to the conclusion that the use of chiropractic in health-care programs is not in the public interest. |
