Educational  and licensing requirements for doctors of chiropractic (DCs) are among the most stringent of any of the health care  professions.

DC's are educated in nationally accredited, four-year doctoral graduate school programs through a curriculum that includes a minimum of 4,200 hours of  classroom, laboratory and clinical internship,  with the average DC  program equivalent in classroom hours to allopathic (MD) and osteopathic  (DO) medical schools. 

Chiropractors are designated as physician-level providers in the vast  majority of states and federal Medicare program. The essential services  provided by DCs are also available in federal health delivery systems, including those administered by Medicaid, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the U.S. Department of Defense, the Federal Employees  Health Benefits Program, Federal Workers' Compensation, and all state workers' compensation programs.
