ChiroWay operates through a franchise model of business, which means that, except in certain limited circumstances, individual practice locations are independently owned and operated by franchisees (each a “ChiroWay Franchisee”). The ChiroWay website and patient portal (collectively, the “Site”) are operated and provided to you by ChiroWay Franchise, LLC on behalf of itself and the ChiroWay Franchisees (ChiroWay Franchise, LLC and the ChiroWay Franchisees are collectively referred to herein as “ChiroWay”).

Professional Chiropractic Services

The Site is an information management tool only and is for your personal and non-commercial use. ChiroWay does not provide professional chiropractic services through the Site. You understand that the content of any message sent through the patient portal may be stored in your permanent chiropractic record.

Proxy Access

Registered Users may be granted access to the records of minor patients for whom the Registered User is the legal guardian. By requesting patient portal access to the records of a minor patient, the Registered User attests and warrants that s/he is the legal guardian of the patient and has the right to access the patient’s health information. Once the patient turns 18 years of age, the Registered User will be presumed to no longer have the legal right to maintain access to information about the patient without the patient’s prior written authorization. Accordingly, ChiroWay will restrict the Registered User’s access to the patient’s information upon the patient’s 18th birthday.
