Overview
Mission
The mission of the Missouri chiropractic physicians association is to advocate for Missouri's chiropractic profession for the health of the public we serve.
What it reported doing in 2024
Information Services to Educate the Members and the General Public: The MCPA provides information services to its membership and the general public through publications, direct mail campaigns, email newsletters and alerts, webpage information and trade shows.Publications: The MCPA produces a journal, The Missouri Chiropractor, which is distributed to all Missouri chiropractors. It features articles and case studies related to chiropractic as well as current updates on issues which impact the profession. The income associated with the MCPAs publications from print ad and classified ad sales was $737.50 for 2025. There were no expenditures for 2025 for publications. The MCPA self-publishes the Journal.Email alerts are special messages of a more urgent or critical nature, sometimes intended to solicit a response from the chiropractors. Alerts have been used to indicate legislative action, a change in insurance policy or filing requirements, or changes in state chiropractic relicensing requirements. The alerts are sent to the same recipients as the MCPA newsletters.There is no expenditure for email journals, newsletters and alerts.Website: The MCPA website, www.mochiro.org, reaches out to members, non-members, chiropractic patients, suppliers, legislators and the general public. The website is the MCPAs largest presentation of information. It is the MCPAs most complete resource for its audiences and includes information on insurance and Medicare, legislation and political action, legal issues, licensing, continuing education, membership benefits, and auxiliary activities. It also has links to other important state and national websites. The site contains a separate patient side which includes a large Find a Doctor section for patient referral.The income associated with the MCPAs website was $0.00 for 2025. The expenses were $851.55. The main MCPA website is managed by CE 21.Advertising & Promotion: During 2025, the MCPA did not engage in any major advertising campaigns directed to the general public. Its main promotional efforts were directed toward promoting its own membership (benefits) and seminars (educational opportunities) to chiropractors and developing partnerships (sponsorships) with suppliers through the avenues listed above (Section 3).
