Challenge Of The Market
Because the healthcare Market is expanding, getting costlier, more technical, more sophisticated and more regulated everyday, we look at our "multi-disciplinary healthcare system" as being a solution to the major challenges in today’s healthcare industry.
- Neuromusculoskeletal (NMS) injuries and disorders now cost the U.S. $254 billion per annum
- Direct cost of health care services for NMS injuries and conditions is greater than $300 billion per annum*; Cost is projected to increase to at least $175 billion by 2005
- Direct cost of health care for workplace injuries now exceeds $30 billion; the majority of these injuries are NMS in nature
- Aggregate health care cost data for injuries occurring outside the workplace are significant
- Americans now spend more than $50 billion per annum on complementary medicine services and products
- Most frequently accessed complementary medicine practitioner is the chiropractor ($12 billion market)
