Mission

Major Activities

Activity 2

Cinbad - consists primarily of an on-line, password protected databank for public actions taken by the fclb member boards. These involve individuals/licensees where violations of the chiropractic practice act have been determined through an adjudicated process. In addition to the disciplinary history, the cinbad system includes data on licensed doctors of chiropractic with no records of sanctions. This information is available at no charge to fclb member boards for use in their public protection mission of regulating the profession. Commercial subscription access is offered at reasonable fee levels to insurance companies and credentialing verification agencies. To alleviate the burden on member boards, fclb also serves as a reporting agent for the majority of us chiropractic boards to the federal healthcare integrity protection databank (hipdb). This furthers fclb's exempt purpose by lessening the financial burdens of government by sharing resources and information, and educating boards about federal reporting requirements.

Activity 3

District meetings - our member boards are divided into three smaller groups for regional meeings to allow for more intimacy and interaction of member boards. The purpose continues to be to position member boards to deal with the pressing legal issues relating to licensing and the protection of the public. No elections or other voting matters take place at these meetings. This furthers fclb's exempt purpose by educating boards in the cutting edge issues in public protection allowing these governments to be proactive by establishing regulatory language,policies, and framework. Combining resources makes economic sense and ensures a more uniform approach which benefits both boards and the general public.
