Someone approached me here (Yahoo Answers) citing Ameriplan as an alternative to high insurance premiums, even going as far to say I could get Health, Dental, and Chiropractic coverage as low as /month.
When I googled Ameriplan there were mixed reviews, and many used the "scam" word, which is not good to read.
Your information on this company is appreciated.

I’ve read about a pillow called Posture Pal, but the only place I can find information or reviews is on their own website, which makes me skeptical. I’m hoping either a Posture Pal user or a chiropractor, physical therapist, or doctor knows something that might help me decide if it’s a good product and worth the cost? I’m looking for something to hlep me correct my head forward posture.
I need to lose at least 25-30 pounds as I am having multiple medical problems, the least being the new hip and leg pain which is causing me to be unable to even walk for exercise. I went to the chiropractor yesterday and my hip was “out”, so he put it back and today it is back “out”. I cannot afford multiple doctor visits, and I know that if I could lose this weight, I would relieve much of the stress on the joints themselves, making myself more mobile. Any ideas?
I had to get private health insurance after my husband’s retiree insurance was cancelled (his former employer closed). He’s eligible for Medicare but I have 16 more months. BCBS quoted a figure online BEFORE I filled out the app that was WAY lower than the figure I ended up with. The reason they gave was high blood pressure and the fact that I had visited a chiropractor several times after an auto accident in which I was not at fault.
I have heard that they will get put on a salary like other careers. What is this salary if that’s the case? If that’s not true then what does happen to their pay and how drastic are the changes?
I understand that can be a hard question to answer since every doctor has the potential to have varying compensation but just answer to the best of your ability and I’ll be satisfied.
Right now I am on my father’s work insurance plan. I turn 21 in January and will no longer be insured under his plan. I work full-time, am not a student right now, am a non-smoker, but my problem is that I’ve been diagnosed with depression and a slew of other mental health problems, so I take a lot of prescription medication. I also have scoliosis and see a chiropractor on a regular basis. I called up Manulife insurance, which used to be my insurer a few years back, and I was basically told that I would be refused under their FlexCare policy because of my depression. I would probably be accepted under their FollowMe plan.
My question is; Would I be better off getting my own plan with a private company, or should I just stick with regular MediCare? Will they cover my drugs? If I should go with private, which companies are best?
Thanks a lot!
I keep seeing it: “I don’t like the idea of people not being able to afford health insurance.” Well, neither do I. I can’t afford it, so I don’t have it. E-mail me and I’ll provide you an address to send your payments to, I think I might want to see a chiropractor next week. Thanks so much, guys!
The recent system does not cover anything that I really need, it punishes people with a healthy lifestyle. Someone like me (no drugs, no smoking, little alcohol) get nothing out of the health insurance.
People using alternative medicine, as chiropractors, acupuncture, mineral and herbal supplements, basically anything but big pharmacy traditional medications and surgery, have to pay full price. This is very unfair.
Basic needs like eyeglasses, contact lenses, hearing aids and dental should also be included.

I know that universal health care will, or would, bring down a medical degree doctor’s salary. The question I am asking is if a universal health care system or one payer system would bring down a chiropractor’s salary or a physical therapist’s salary?
Okay, so I SHOULD know this as I am also a health care professional…but hear me out.
Ever since I was pregnant with my daughter (in the last couple months…she was born two months ago, so this is going on for about four months now, getting increasingly worse) I have felt a stabbing pain in the antero-lateral aspect of my right knee, along with a stretching & stabbing pain in my right hallux (feels as tho the tendon of extensor hallicus longus is being stretched beyond it’s limits sometimes).
I have gone to the doctor and they don’t know what’s wrong.
Does this sound familiar to anyone? Basically the knee pain is absolutely horrid at times! It’s a combination of feeling like there is something in there that is ripping, and stabbing as well as numbness on the skin in the area where it hurts. the pain goes from about the antero-superior portion of the lateral condyle of the tibia to the head of the fibula.
What do you suggest for dx, tx, etc?
The proposed health care reform will define which doctors are “meaningful users” of the system, and I was wondering if alternative health care providers (chiropractors, massage therapists, etc) will be considered “meaningful users”.
I am 25 weeks pregnant and recently got medical assistance and my ob/gyn recommended me going to see a chiropractor because of the severe back pain I’ve been having. Do chiropractors take medical assistance and is it completely covered?
I’m having pulled muscles in the neck and I want to have it fixed asap. I’m planning to go to a chiropractor tomorrow, but I have no health insurance. Will there be a huge different amount of money if you go with and without an insurance? Tell me about chiropractor health insurance.
