If you or a loved one is involved in an auto accident and you do not have health insurance, it can be a very scary experience. Of course, if hospital care is necessary you will want to go to emergency room. However, if the injuries are not life-threatening, it is in your best interest to go to a quick care to be referred to the best course of treatment. Seeking legal representation immediately in this type of situation can help you get the medical care you need for the auto insurance funds that are available.
Many people are not aware that automobile policies are limited and do not provide unlimited medical care to people who are injured through no fault of their own. That is why it is extremely important to make sure you get the right care at the right cost. And attorney can find out quickly what policies are involved and available for your injuries. An attorney can maximize the use of those funds to get you the care you need and the recovery you deserve. Hospital bills can be exorbitant, extraordinary and completely unreasonable for non-life-threatening injuries. Without the insurance company provider contract discounts, it can be difficult to negotiate these bills to a reasonable cost. However, if hospital care is needed, an attorney can fight for you and take those medical costs from a hospital down to a reasonable figure considering the policy is involved most of the time.
According to the Center for disease control, there are still almost 30,000,000 Americans who do not have any type of health insurance.
