If you are injured in an accident and are hurt, it is crucial for you to seek medical treatment. Depending on the severity of your injury, the first visit might be to the local hospital. The next step (or for those who don't go to the hospital, the first step), is where it gets tricky. And your options depend on whether you have health insurance, whether your primary doctor is willing and qualified to treat your specific injury and whether you have an attorney who can arrange for you to see medical doctors, including specialists, to treat you.

Do you go to your Primary Care Doctor? That depends on whether your injuries are the kind that can be treated by a PCP. It also depends on whether you have health insurance and whether the family doctor will agree to see accident victims. It is unbelievable to me that many doctors simply refuse to see patients who have been in an accident. The reason is they run into problems with health insurance companies denying payment if the treatment is related to an accident. If you don't have insurance, then going to your PCP is usually not an option.

So should you be denied medical care just because you don't have health insurance or because the insurance will not pay for your treatment? Absolutely not! I have contacts with all sorts of doctors, and can arrange for my clients to be seen quickly by the appropriate type of doctor to treat my client's injuries. These professionals will agree to delay sending the bills until the claim has had a chance to resolve, so immediate payment is not a problem. These medical professionals include primary doctors, pain management doctors, chiropractors, orthopedics, neurologists, surgeons, physical therapists, and just about all kinds of doctors who treat injuries. I also have arrangements with various pharmacies and durable medical equipment (DME) providers so my clients can receive their medicine, or equipment, even if they don't have that type of health insurance. So don't let the lack of health insurance cause you to endure pain endlessly. You definitely have better options than going untreated.

Helping clients with getting the appropriate medical treatment is something me and my staff do every day. If you think we can help you, please give me a call at 817-294-1900 or Contact Me Online.
