What compensation do board members receive for their service?

Board members typically receive reimbursement for expenses incurred while performing their duties. This compensation structure recognizes the time and resources board members invest in overseeing and guiding the regulatory activities of the chiropractic profession, while also ensuring that their dedication does not become a financial burden.

Reimbursement for expenses can cover travel costs, meeting fees, and any other necessary expenditures related to their board responsibilities. This approach emphasizes the volunteer nature of their work, as board members are generally not compensated with a salary, hourly wage, or commission. Instead, the focus is on facilitating their service without incurring out-of-pocket costs, maintaining an efficient and effective board while ensuring that individuals from diverse backgrounds can participate without financial constraints.
