4 Our Fee Structure Last Updated on 8/4/2011 We have found that insurance companies typically do not support the quality, amount and type of health care coverage that is necessary for optimal health. In order to focus on the needs of the patient and deliver the best care possible, Dr. Seward has chosen to be an out-of network insurance provider. Payment options: Payment is due upon the day of your visit. We will provide you with a super-bill to file on your own to your insurance company. To better serve our community, we give up to a 30% discount for individuals/families who choose to invest in their health with prepay plans. These packages must be used within the first 3 months after your first visit. See Dana for more information! In most cases this option is less costly than using your insurance, due to high deductibles and limited insurance coverage. **Discounts are not available for use with any insurance or Medicare. We are currently not accepting Medicare or Medicaid. Fees for Your Initial Visit: Consultation...Complimentary Examination...$50 Radiology... $40/ $60/ Maximum $80 Dependent on Views Adjustment...$45 Package Prices Available Estimated Total... Maximum $175 Fees After Your Initial Visit: Adult Adjustment... $45 Package Prices Available Child Adjustment... $25 Package Prices Available Re-examination... $20 Doctor s Report... $20 Due Upon 2 nd Visit Nutritional Assessment... $45 * Please note that if you have been involved in a motor vehicle accident, our fee structure may differ due to the complexity of your needs in such cases. * Please also note that your clinical Report of Findings, the time that Dr. Seward will spend with you to go over your results, will be $20.00, due upon your second visit. * Adult and Child Packages expire after 6 months of initial purchase. I fully understand the above fees and give my consent. I also give my consent to have the doctor take any x-rays he deems appropriate to better understand my problem and monitor my progress. All x-rays are performed on premises by Dr. Seward. Fee Structure Acceptance Form

5 Informed Consent to Chiropractic Treatment The nature of chiropractic treatment: The doctor will use his/her hands or a mechanical device in order to move your joints. You may feel a click or a a pop such as the noise when a knuckle is cracked and you may feel movement of the joint. Various ancillary procedures, such as hot or cold packs, electric muscle stimulation, therapeutic ultrasound or hydrotherapy may also be used. Possible risks: As with many health care procedures, complications are possible following a chiropractic manipulation. Complications could include fractures of bone, muscular strain, ligamentous sprain, dislocations of joints, or injury to intervertebral discs, nerves or spinal cord. Cerebrovascular injury or stroke could occur upon severe injury to arteries of the neck. A minority of patients may notice stiffness or soreness after the first few days of treatment. The ancillary procedures could produce skin irritation, burns or minor complications. Probability of risks occurring: The risks of complications due to chiropractic treatment have been described as rare, about as often as complications are seen from taking a single aspirin tablet. The risk of cerebrovascular injury or stroke has been estimated at one in one million to one in twenty million, and can be even further reduced by screening procedures. The probability of adverse reaction due ancillary procedures is also considered rare. Other treatment options which could be considered include the following: Over-the-counter analgesics. The risks of these medications include irritation to the stomach, liver and kidneys, and other side effects in a significant number of cases. Medical care, typically anti-inflammatory drugs, tranquilizers, and analgesics. Risks of these drugs include a multitude of undesirable side effects and patient dependence in a significant number of cases. Hospitalization in conjunction with medical care adds risk of exposure to virulent communicable diseases in a significant number of cases. Surgery in conjunction with medical care adds the risks of adverse reaction to anesthesia, as well as an extended convalescent period in a significant number of cases. Risks of remaining untreated: Delay of treatment allows formation of adhesions, scar tissue, and other degenerative changes. These changes can further reduce skeletal mobility and induce chronic pain cycles. It is quite probable that delay of treatment will complicate the condition and make further rehabilitation more difficult. Unusual risks: I have had the following unusual risks of my case explained to me. I have read the explanation above of chiropractic treatment. I have had the opportunity to have any questions answered to my satisfaction. I have fully evaluated the risks and benefits of undergoing treatment. I have freely decided to undergo the recommended treatment and hereby give my full consent to treatment. Printed Name: Date: Signature: Witness: Informed Consent to Chiropractic Treatment Form
