Evidence-based practice is the triad every board wants to see: best available research, clinical expertise, and the patient's values — integrated into one defensible decision. This curriculum works the triad in practice order: evaluate the patient, document the outcome, decide when imaging changes the plan, choose the mode of care the evidence supports, and co-manage cervical spine to lower extremity with the wider healthcare team.

Seven of the nine courses are authored by Monte Horne, DC — CCEDseminars' founder, 39+ years in practice, a former Designated Doctor for the Texas Department of Insurance, and a working expert witness and peer reviewer — the vantage point from which "evidence-based" stops being a slogan and becomes what a record has to prove: measurable outcomes, defensible imaging decisions, and medical necessity a second reader can verify. Steven Yeomans, DC, FACO closes the series with orthopedic-credentialed lumbar and cervical spine management.

Choose Your Evidence-Based Practice Path — Three Lanes, One Curriculum

The catalog follows the clinical workflow itself — evaluate and measure, decide on imaging, then select and co-manage care. Each course appears in the grid at the bottom of this page.

1 · Foundations: Evaluation & Outcomes (201–202)

Where evidence enters the exam room — and where it enters the record.

201: Patient Evaluation
202: Documenting Clinical Outcomes

2 · Imaging Decisions (203–204)

When to image, when to wait, and what the result actually changes.

203: Imaging in Clinical Practice I
204: Imaging in Clinical Practice II

3 · Care Selection & Collaborative Management (205–209)

Choosing the evidence-supported mode of care — and co-managing it across the healthcare team, region by region.

205: Modes of Care
206: Collaborative Care for the Upper Extremities
207: Lower Extremity Collaborative Care
208: Lumbar Spine Management
209: Cervical Spine Management

New evidence-based practice courses are added to these lanes as faculty release them — the course grid below always shows the current catalog.

What You'll Learn

• Evidence-informed patient evaluation — turning the history and exam into findings that support (or rule out) a working diagnosis.

• Outcomes documentation that proves medical necessity: measurable baselines, validated measures, and progress a reviewer can verify.

• Imaging decision-making across two courses — indications, red-flag triggers, and what a study result actually changes in the plan.

• Mode-of-care selection and collaborative management — co-managing cervical spine, lumbar spine, and the extremities with referral partners, guided by evidence rather than habit.

Your Evidence-Based Practice Faculty

Monte Horne, DC authors the core sequence (201–207) — evaluation, outcomes documentation, both imaging courses, modes of care, and collaborative extremity management — drawing on 39+ years of practice, service as a former Designated Doctor for the Texas Department of Insurance, and ongoing work as an expert witness and peer reviewer. Evidence-based practice taught by a doctor whose job includes judging whether other doctors' records prove it.

Steven Yeomans, DC, FACO — Fellow of the Academy of Chiropractic Orthopedists — teaches the two spine-management capstones (208–209), bringing the orthopedic literature and outcome-measure discipline of his documentation and personal injury series to lumbar and cervical care.

Where Evidence-Based Practice Hours Count — State Rules Worth Knowing

Evidence-based practice coursework is clinical subject matter — evaluation, diagnosis, imaging decisions, and case management — which serves the clinical-hour structures many states impose: Iowa's 36-hour clinical case-management minimum, Rhode Island's 50-of-60 clinical requirement, and Vermont's clinical-focus rule, where patient-care education like this counts fully.

Online-format allowances vary by jurisdiction — some states accept all hours online, others cap distance learning or condition it: Wisconsin, for example, requires half of online hours to be synchronous. Check your state's guide in the full state directory before building your renewal plan.

Build Your Evidence-Based Practice Block

Every course is 2 hours at $40, so the automatic discounts stack naturally: three courses (6 hours) earns 10% off, five or more (10+ hours) in one order earns 20% off — a full lane, the complete workflow, or all 18 hours at roughly $288 instead of $360. No promo codes; the discount calculates itself at checkout.

Evidence-Based Practice CE — Frequently Asked Questions

What are evidence-based practice CE courses?

Online continuing education that integrates best available research, clinical expertise, and patient values into everyday chiropractic decisions: evidence-informed patient evaluation, outcomes documentation that proves medical necessity, imaging decision-making, mode-of-care selection, and collaborative management of the spine and extremities. Courses run 2 CE hours each, on-demand, with an assessment and instant certificate.

Which evidence-based practice course should I take first?

Follow the workflow: Patient Evaluation (201) and Documenting Clinical Outcomes (202) build the foundation every other decision rests on. Add the imaging pair (203–204) for decision points, then choose the care-selection and collaborative-management lane (205–209) by the regions your caseload demands. The pathway map above shows every course in each lane.

Do evidence-based practice hours count as clinical CE for my state?

Evidence-based practice coursework is clinical subject matter — evaluation, diagnosis, imaging, and case management — which serves clinical-hour minimums like Iowa's 36-hour clinical case-management requirement and Rhode Island's 50-of-60 rule, and clinical-focus standards like Vermont's. Online-format allowances still vary by jurisdiction; verify your state's online rules in its guide before registering.

Who teaches these courses?
