Methods of Payment for Medical Expenses After an Accident
A car accident can turn your life completely upside down. Injuries and extensive pain require medical care which can cause the financial expenses to be astronomical. Many car accident victims begin to feel overwhelmed and stressed as they worry about medical bills.
Who’s Responsible for Paying Medical Bills After An Accident?
Being involved in a car accident can lead to immediate and ongoing medical expenses such as rehabilitation, therapy, and prescription medications. Unfortunately, before you can take legal action or file an insurance claim, other methods will need to be used to cover these expenses. Typically, these are the three ways to cover medical expenses:
- File a personal injury claim.
- Use your health insurance.
- Use your automobile insurance.
No matter what the obstacle may be, get medical help immediately following a car accident. Even minor injuries should be treated to ensure there are long-term effects to the body. Sometimes trauma can take a while to manifest, which may include internal bleeding and spinal cord injuries. Schedule a consultation or call us at 713-524-4040 to discuss your options.
