Rep. Beth Griffin (R-Mattawan) spearheaded a recent proposal for accident victims that was signed into law, according to Michigan House Republicans.
Under the new law, car accident victims will soon have more access to several chiropractic services covered by personal injury protection (PIP).
Now that this law has passed, Michigan chiropractors will be compensated through PIP coverage. The reimbursement must be for services they can legally provide.

Griffin said that insurance companies should be treating all medical professionals equally under the law.
“Michigan’s insurance laws need to treat all medical professionals the same, including equal reimbursement for similar services,” Griffin told the Michigan House Republicans. “Under the new law, car accident victims will soon be able to choose their health providers, be it chiropractor or not, to receive the treatment they need and with a doctor they know well and trust."
Griffin added that the law is a win for Michigan citizens. “This law will give car accident victims more treatment options that do not involve expensive and addicting opioid medications and is a win for Southwest Michigan families,” told the Michigan House Republicans.
