Auto Accident Pain Treatment in Bel Air MD
When it comes to your health, there is no such thing as a minor accident. Whiplash being the most common of car accident injuries. However we can treat any injury that is a result of an auto accident. Sometimes after an accident the pain is immediate. Some injuries can take weeks, months or even years to cause major pain that disrupts your life. As with all injures the sooner you seek treatment the better.

Who pays my bills in an auto accident?

There a few options for paying for care after an auto accident.

Personal Injury Protection (PIP): PIP is a rider on your auto insurance policy. It covers usually the first $2500 of care. If you were hit by another driver their policy should reimburse your insurance company and pay the remainder of the bill. You can upgrade to higher coverage. Unfortunately, you can also waive the coverage and most people do not even know they did it. Did you click on the “save more here button” when you bought your insurance from a website? Then you likely unknowingly waived your PIP.

Health Insurance: Health insurance can be used to pay for care but there is a patient responsibility assigned by most plans in copays, coins and deductibles.

Lawyer: Hiring a PIP lawyer is always a great idea. They don’t pay the health claim directly but help negotiate who is paying what, so you don’t have to. I think of it like selling a house, you can do it yourself, but it is so much easier to hire a trained professional to help you. Remember you are not suing the other driver just having the lawyer negotiate with the insurance payers.
