Quixote symposium focuses on research

Quixote Software company's recent one‑day Business Symposium marked what company officials are calling "a milestone in the company's history" as it unveiled its global research and clinical science component. Quixote is already considered one of the most powerful chiropractic office software packages.

The symposium featured speakers presenting information on a variety of important and timely issues facing the chiropractic profession, including the benefits derived from computations, extrapolations and methodologies of chiropractic care and the research data acquired through Quixote. Also addressed was the need for office software that is fully compliant with all HIPAA patient confidentiality regulations.

The day‑long event, held in San Diego, attracted doctors from around the country who were seeking high‑tech but easy‑to‑use tools for developing and building their practices and dealing with the increasingly complex tasks associated with third party payer insurance reimbursement. Quixote staff members provided demonstrations to allow chiropractors a hands‑on experience using the software.

President and founder of the World Chiropractic Alliance (WCA), Terry A. Rondberg, DC, opened the symposium with a passionate plea for increased attention to chiropractic research.

"Chiropractic has been around for 112 years, yet, there is still a dearth of research supporting and proving what we already know ‑‑ that chiropractic works," he said. "Today, that's going to change. Just by utilizing Quixote, empirical data will be automatically collected and compiled. The end result will be a true validation of chiropractic care."

Nancy Smith, president and CEO of Quixote focused her attention on the capabilities of the Quixote software as a complete office management solution.

"We've cracked the code in software for chiropractors," she explained. "The beauty of our software is its simplicity. Through our exceptional interface and dynamic system, which utilizes automatic memory management, we're able to reduce on‑screen clutter and deliver an optimized real‑time solution ‑‑ something the chiropractors have always needed. I think it's safe to say, that Quixote is taking the chiropractic industry to new heights and will quickly become the de facto standard in chiropractors' offices."

Also making a presentation at the symposium was well‑known defender of chiropractic care, Mr. Carlos F. Negrete, Esq., who spoke to the legal benefits of both the Quixote system and of chiropractic research in courtroom settings.
