WCB Manitoba Chiropractor Progress Report (7C)
Manitoba chiropractors use this one-page form to update the WCB on a worker's recovery after the first report, or at discharge. It records any change in diagnosis, the examination dates since the last report, current complaints and objective findings, consultant referrals, the plan to discharge and work abilities. It is also where a chiropractor requests an extension and gives the rationale.
Who completes it
The treating chiropractor completes and signs the form. Worker details, the area of injury and the date of incident are entered by the clinic, and the worker and employer do not complete any part.
Submitting and payment
- How to submit it
- Fax the completed fillable PDF to the WCB at the number printed on the form. Send it when the WCB requests it or when the worker's recovery changes notably, not after every visit.
- Who pays
- WCB Manitoba pays the progress/discharge report fee under service code 0208 when a completed progress report on the WCB form is submitted.
Good to know
- Under the WCB chiropractic management guidelines, ask for treatment beyond the maximum duration no later than two weeks before it ends; the WCB decides within one week.
- The WCB does not accept non-responsiveness to treatment as a reason to prolong therapy, and it does not approve preventive or maintenance care.
- Attach objective results such as range of motion, muscle testing, neurological status, X-ray findings and status inventory scores, and list examination dates since the last report.
- A narrative report requested by the WCB is a typed or written letter rather than this form, and it is billed separately under service code 3017.

Frequently asked questions
When should a chiropractor send the 7C progress report?
WCB Manitoba's service code manual says progress or subsequent reports are not required for every follow-up visit. Send one when the WCB requests it or when there is a notable change in the worker's recovery. The fee under code 0208 is billable only when a completed progress report on the WCB form is submitted.
Can the 7C form request more chiropractic treatment?
Yes. The treatment plan section asks whether an extension is requested and for the rationale, alongside the type, frequency and duration of in-clinic treatment to discharge. The WCB guidelines ask for extension requests no later than two weeks before the maximum treatment duration so care is not interrupted.
What does WCB Manitoba treat as non-responsiveness to manipulation?
Criteria include worsening during the first two weeks, no improvement during any consecutive two-week period or six consecutive treatments, and reaching the category's time limit. The WCB then expects discharge, referral elsewhere, or active rehabilitation as the main treatment, with manipulation only as an adjunct.
