Governmental Relations
Advocating for chiropractic - in Springfield and beyond.
The ICS represents Illinois chiropractic physicians before the General Assembly and state agencies - working with insurers on members' issues, advocating for fair regulation and enforcement, and encouraging employers to expand coverage.
How the ICS advocates
Everywhere decisions about chiropractic are made
From the Capitol to the exam room, the ICS works so that Illinois chiropractic physicians can practice fully and be treated fairly.
In the General Assembly
The ICS initiates legislation that helps chiropractic physicians maintain their scope of practice - and works to defeat bills that would harm the profession or its patients.
With regulators and insurers
The ICS advocates for fair regulation and enforcement, educates policymakers, and works with insurers on the issues members bring to us.
In the marketplace
The ICS encourages employers across Illinois to expand coverage of chiropractic care - growing access for patients and practices alike.
