90% of British Columbians support allowing chiropractors to refer directly for publicly funded x-rays.
Currently, patients in BC often face unnecessary delays and duplicate visits just to access diagnostic imaging. By allowing chiropractors to refer directly to radiologists, we can:
✅ Save the healthcare system an estimated $4.1 million annually
✅ Avoid over 100,000 unnecessary family doctor visits
✅ Reduce wait times and start treatment 33+ days sooner
We’re advocating for a simple, evidence-backed change that will improve access, lower costs, and benefit patients across the province.
It’s time to modernize care. Let chiropractors refer directly for publicly funded X-rays.
