Offices of Chiropractors

NAICS 621310 · Ambulatory Health Care Services · SBA size standard: $9 million average annual receipts

Chiropractic offices schedule patient appointments, perform adjustments, order imaging when needed, track treatment plans, manage insurance claims and maintain detailed clinical notes. For a practice that sees patients for initial exams, adjustment visits and wellness care, the specialists turn inbound inquiries into booked appointments, appointment notes into billing claims, treatment plans into rebooking reminders, and regulatory paperwork into organized records. Clinical decisions, diagnosis, imaging orders and patient adjustments stay with the licensed chiropractor.
