Personal Injury: Paying for your Medical Treatment

A common question many people have for their Las Vegas Injury Lawyer after they are in an a Las Vegas Car Accident, is how they are going to pay for their medical treatment. If you have health insurance, you can use your health insurance to pay for your medical bills, related to your Las Vegas Car Accident. However, some people do not have health insurance and they wonder how they are going to pay their medical bills.

If you do not have health insurance, your Injury Lawyer in Las Vegas will direct you to doctors who treat Las Vegas Car Accidents through what is called, a medical "lien". If you are treated through a lien, you sign an agreement with your doctor, stating that your doctor will be paid out of the proceeds of your Las Vegas Personal Injury case. So, there is no out of pocket expense to you. Once you case is settled or resolved, your Las Vegas Car Accident Attorney will directly pay all of your medical bills through your settlement proceeds.

Some people have Medicare or receive Nevada state health benefits. If you receive your health care through one of these programs, your Las Vegas Car Accident Attorney will tell you that it may be better not to use these programs and instead simply use a lien to pay for your medical treatment. In the end, the most important point to keep in mind that your treatment and healing are the most important parts of your Las Vegas Injury case. You should always keep your Las Vegas Personal Injury Lawyer updated of your treatment and talk to your Las Vegas Personal Injury Lawyer anytime you have questions concerning your medical treatment.
