The Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs will hold a public hearing to receive public
comments on proposed changes to the Chiropractic – General Rules rule set.
The proposed rules will clarify terms used in the rule set, adopt by reference accreditation standards for
chiropractic educational programs; include a requirement that acceptable continuing education must be
approved or offered by the Michigan Association of Chiropractors (MAC), with the exception of a course
or courses related to the practice of chiropractic which are offered on campus by an approved
chiropractic school or initial presentation of a continuing education program related to the practice of
chiropractic to a state, regional, national, or international organization; and rescind the rule allowing a
proposed sponsor of continuing education to seek approval from the board to offer continuing education
courses since proposed continuing education providers will now have to seek approval from the MAC.
