Carolina Pain and Performance

Join us tonight at 6pm at the Downtown Shop for Bull City Run Club! We’ll have special guest Anna Cecere (MA, LCMHCA, NCC) to speak briefly about mindfulness and distress tolerance in running, and we’ll have Carolina Pain and Performance to provide a post-run recovery zone! It’s going to be another hot one, so please remember to bring your own hydration container, and we’ll see you tonight! Visit bit.ly/bcrc for full details.

Your feet are essential for running, but they can also be prone to injury. Join us Tuesday (11/7) at 6:15 at our South Durham shop for a free foot FUNction clinic led by Carolina Pain and Performance. Learn about intrinsic foot stability, foot strengthening exercises, great toe function and mobility, and more! Let’s keep your foundations strong and injury-free. Register at bit.ly/footfunction if you plan to attend!

Beginning in July 2023, Carolina Pain and Performance will transition to an out-of-network care model.

Why?
Recently, several insurance companies have made changes to their medical policies. We have reviewed these changes carefully and have determined that they no longer align with our practice values and care model. Remaining in-network with these insurance plans would prevent us from providing the same level of care with manual therapy and rehabilitation services that our patients rely on. According to comparative practice data from Health Network Solutions, our current care model is 45% more cost-effective than other chiropractic providers in the Carolinas. Our mission is to provide efficient patient-centered care. For this reason, we have chosen to leave all insurance networks, except for Medicare, to shift the focus back to the patient and provide a patient-centered care model without the insurance companies influencing and dictating treatment.

What does this mean for me?
If you have Medicare Part B, then not much will change for you; however, some supplemental coverage may be affected. For all other patients with insurance coverage, we will no longer be a participating provider accepting assignment. Instead, we will provide you with a super bill so you can take advantage of any out-of-network benefits your plan may offer, and your carrier will reimburse you directly.

How will I be charged going forward?
Patients will be charged a flat rate fee for the visit with options to extend the visit up to 60 minutes at a discounted rate.

We appreciate and value your continued support. Please reach out with any questions.

Our office will be closed on 9/9 and 9/10. See you all next week!

We are in the office! Roads were wet this morning with occasional standing water but no ice.

We will be open today. Drive safely!

We are keeping an eye on the developing ice storm and will monitor the road conditions for the morning commute. Check back for updates and potential delayed opening.

We are operating on a normal schedule today.
