KEYNOTE:Integrating

Chiropractic in the Healthcare Continuum

Sherry McAllister, DC, CCSP

(For All Attendees)Sponsor:

Foundation for Chiropractic Progress

Healthcare is only as valuable as the outcomes it achieves. Never before in history has the healthcare system become infiltrated with low value options and led to an opioid epidemic. The time is now to showcase the value of chiropractic in healthcare. Cost Savings, Efficacy, Return on Investment, Patient Satisfaction, and Safety are but a few reasons why Chiropractic is on the RISE.Dr. McAllister serves as the Executive Vice President for the Foundation for Chiropractic Progress, the national not-for-profit organization creating positive

press for chiropractic. She is a graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic West, where she served as an Associate Professor. She earned her Masters in Science with a focus in education from the California State University East Bay and holds a degree in Cellular, Molecular, Microbial Biology from the University of Calgary.

She enjoys working with chiropractic student clubs, preceptor doctors, and being a community liaison. Dr. McAllister has served as a Qualified Medical Examiner, expert chiropractic witness for the State of California, and has been in private practice in San Jose since 1996.

The Triad of Gut Destruction: The Dance of Diamine Oxidase, Zonulin, LPS & Dysbiosis

Cheryl Burdette, ND(For DCs)

Sponsor:Dunwoody Labs

A symphony of signaling occurs in the gut which results in immune regulation or inflammation. This lecture will review the interplay between diamine oxidase, the enzyme that degrades histamine, and Zonulin, a regulator of tight junctions. Understanding the interplay of signaling gives clinical direction for treatment of gut based permeability. The gut is the major interface to the outside world. It is our first line of defense as well as where our first exposure happens. It is where we decide if we are immune tolerant of the world or alternatively, inflamed by the world. Recent research by Dr. Fassano of Harvard demonstrates that the inflammatory contribution from the gut results in a host of systemic conditions, from neurologic to auto-immune as well as diabetes and some cancers. He also affirms that movement away from a disease centered paradigm is possible by recognizing underlying processes that are occurring before pathology is evident. We will review highly evidenced biomarkers that map care. The gut is our window to prevention and

remission of many chronic conditions. By addressing the triggers of histamine, such as pathogens from LPS forming gram-negative bacteria and optimal levels of diamine oxidase, we can limit inflammation and slow the progression of pathology. Oral immunoglobulin therapy, strains of probiotics and other nutritional therapies are specific for targeting the cause of Zonulin alterations and minimized Diamine Oxidase production. This lecture will enhance knowledge around the area of gut inflammation and its interplay between obesity, diabetes, and neuroendocrine dysfunction, further optimizing our ability to treat.Dr. Cheryl Burdette is the Director of Education and the Naturopathic Residency program at Progressive Medical. She has been in private practice since 2001. She directs an accredited Naturopathic residency program that is focused on Integrative Medicine and Nutritional Biochemistry. Dr. Burdette is the founder and Educational Director of Dunwoody labs, for which she designs clinical profiles and trains clinicians in their utilization.

What Front Desk CAs Need to Know About Insurance – Even in a Cash

You need to have a working understanding of how benefits are coordinated, primary vs. secondary, forms required for Medicare patients, when to have the patient sign a waiver to file insurance, proper walk-out statements to patients, etc. If your practice does accept insurance, you need to know what questions to ask to get the right information and paperwork to support billings, how to do and understand online verifications, etc.
