Can I get medical treatment before my case settles?
Answer: Yes, and you usually should not wait for settlement to get necessary medical care.
Complete Explanation:
Car accident settlements can take time. Waiting for the case to settle before getting treatment may harm both your health and your claim. Insurance companies often argue that a person who delayed treatment must not have been seriously injured. Follow your doctor’s recommendations, attend appointments, and keep records of symptoms, prescriptions, therapy, missed work, and travel for medical care. Treatment history is one of the primary ways injury damages are proven.
