Chiropractor Prices

Spinecare Chiropractic’s practices are all individually owned and operated and therefore slightly differ in their chiropractic fee structures and your health investment. If you would like to find out exactly what is the chiropractic cost and fee structure for your local Spinecare practice, please give us a call and your friendly front desk staff will be able to help you over the phone.

You may wish to ask them about chiropractic fees for our new patient consultation, x-ray analysis, your report of findings, regular consultations as well as infant, child, student, pensioner or concession discount.

Private Health Insurance – Extra’s Cover – HICAPS

At all Spinecare Chiropractic locations across Adelaide you are able to utilize your private health insurance rebates for chiropractic care. All our practices have access to our HICAPS system, which allows for on the spot rebates!

When you swipe your private health insurance swipe cards through our HICAPS machine it immediately gives us your health rebate. Then you just pay the gap on the day! It’s quick and easy and saves you time and money sending in receipts and waiting for your money back.

HICAPSAs every private health insurance company is different, they all have different rebates and coverage. It’s best to check with your private health insurance company exactly what level of cover you have and what you will get back for your chiropractic visits.

Some Spinecare practices may even be member’s preferred providers and give extra returns per visit depending again on your level of cover and location. Some insurance companies even give bonus claims that you may be able to use during your care.

HICAPS have a large number of companies that can claim using their system and these include the following,
