Should I See a Chiropractor After an Accident?
Will Auto Insurance Cover Chiropractic Care?
Check Your Coverage: Personal Injury Protection (PIP) covers medical expenses, including chiropractic care, regardless of fault. Verify limits and session caps with your insurer. Medical Payments Coverage (MedPay) is similar to PIP; this can help with chiropractic costs. Confirm specifics with your provider.
Out-of-Pocket Costs: Even with insurance, you may have copays or deductibles. Discuss fees and payment options with your chiropractor upfront.
Switching Chiropractors: You can switch chiropractors if you’re not satisfied, but notify your insurer to avoid claim issues.
Act Quickly: Seek care promptly after the accident to support your recovery and prevent long-term complications.
Confirm Details: Contact your insurance company to confirm coverage and ensure your chosen chiropractor is in-network.
Keep Records: Maintain detailed records of injuries and treatments to streamline insurance claims.
If Coverage is Limited: If your auto insurance does not cover chiropractic care, you may be able to seek coverage under the protection of a competent attorney and lien on your case.
