What is the Technology Fee for Healthsource Chiropractic franchises, and how often is it paid?

According to the 2025 Healthsource Chiropractic Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to pay a Technology Fee of $199 per month. This fee covers website and technology-related services and expenses, as well as fees related to required human resources and payroll services. The Technology Fee is defined and discussed in Section 11.4 of the franchise agreement.

Healthsource Chiropractic may also establish a program to provide additional marketing services to Clinic franchises involving the placement of individuals on a local basis to perform marketing activities. This program is optional for Clinic franchises, and if a franchisee chooses to use this marketing program, they must agree to pay the fee determined by Healthsource Chiropractic. The franchisor reserves the right to change the amount of this fee at any time.

It is important for prospective franchisees to understand that the Technology Fee is a mandatory monthly expense, while the additional marketing program is optional. Franchisees should factor the Technology Fee into their monthly operating costs and carefully consider the potential benefits and costs of participating in the optional marketing program. It is also important to note that Healthsource Chiropractic may modify the System, including adding new components to services and products offered and equipment used by Clinic franchises, which could potentially impact technology needs and associated costs.
