Electrodiagnosis is an integral component of clinical chiropractic practice. Valid and reliable electrodiagnostic methods currently used by doctors of chiropractic include: electromyography (EMG); nerve conduction velocity testing (NCV); somatosensory/dermatomal evoked potentials (SEP/DSEP); H-reflex; F-waves; and quantitative sensory testing-current perception threshold (CPT-neurometer).

Testing peripheral nerves is germane and within the scope of chiropractic practice since it helps differentiate peripheral neuropathy from spinal radiculopathy.

AMMA-PMD provides EDX , Musculoskeletal Ultrasound, X-Ray and Biomechanical interpretations to physicians nationwide.  Our NEUROPOINT program provides these doctors with the necessary testing services in their offices. This benefits the patient and practice.  Board certified neurologists and radiologists provide our doctors with fast, doctor friendly summary reports in a few days.  The physician is able to bill the insurance for the technical services of the procedures. This represents a substantial revenue stream for the practice.

No contractual commitments are ever in play with these services. They are provided "as needed" only.  These services are simple to integrate into the busiest of practices and allow the doctor to schedule testing Monday thru Saturday.

• The NEUROPOINT program offers special pricing as not to effect treatment CAPS.
  

• Attorney represented injuries can be done on a lien basis if the CAP is too small.
  

• The ordering physician makes that decision and we follow that recommendation.
  

• The program provides for advanced funding for these liens if the doctor wishes not to wait for settlement.
  

AMMA provides all the necessary support in scheduling and billing for the practice

including insurance verification, HCFA or EMR preparation and claims services if desired.  Now you can add a practical and profitable modality to your current services. Truly a WIN-WIN situation.
