Frequently Asked Questions For Auto Accidents
WHAT TYPE OF DOCTOR SHOULD I SEE FOLLOWING AN ACCIDENT?
If you have been very seriously hurt, you should see an emergency room physician first. Many choose to see chiropractic physicians due to their expertise in musculoskeletal related problems. However, a chiropractic physician cannot make the determination of an emergency medical condition and properly document these injuries for your PIP benefits. If you have a significant injury, you should see a medical provider to determine if you have the appropriate condition for your PIP benefits.
can i choose my own doctor?
You may choose to go to any chiropractic physician, medical physician or specialist without referral. Your auto insurance company will cover your medical bills regardless of your choice of physicians.
should i hire an attorney?
The decision to hire an attorney is an important process that needs careful consideration. It is not a requirement for you to retain an attorney in order for you to receive treatment. Many patients decide to retain an attorney when their injuries are considered permanent, have lost wages or earning capacity, will incur future medical expenses, have significant pain/suffering and other “non-economic losses”, etc.
can i choose my own doctor?
This all depends on the type of injury you sustained from your accident. The most common type of injury is a soft tissue injury. Soft tissues are comprised of muscles, tendons, ligaments, discs and nerves. Because the first 72 hours after an injury are crucial for treatment, seeking immediate treatment for your injuries will enhance your chances of recovery.
