Ca: ICBC cuts deal with chiropractors for patient medical records

Posted on June 19, 2009 by Dissent

The Insurance Corp. of B.C. is defending its decision to enter into an agreement with B.C. chiropractors that could give the corporation access to patients’ medical records.

Under the deal, ICBC will pay chiropractors a $900 flat fee for treating an ICBC customer. The chiropractor could then provide ICBC with records of the patient’s treatment.

The B.C. Chiropractors Association said medical records unrelated to a particular treatment will not be forwarded to ICBC.
