Keep it to booking. Symptoms and history belong on the phone or in your intake forms, not a text thread. ### Should the text explain Medicare coverage? Offer to call. Medicare covers spinal adjustments to correct a subluxation but not other services a chiropractor orders, which takes a minute to explain. ### Do we need a STOP line on one reply? Yes. FCC rules list STOP and similar words as ways to opt out, and CTIA's guidelines expect senders to say how. ## Sources 1.
