Question:
Who is going to pay for my medical bills after a car accident in Orlando?
Answer:
Clients usually will ask us who is going to pay their medical bills, and a lot of times they’re surprised by the answer. In Florida, we have a no-fault system. No-fault means that regardless of who is at fault for the accident, your own insurance is going to pay the initial $10,000 of medical treatment when you’re involved in a motor vehicle accident. A lot of people are hesitant for that because they believe their insurance rates might go up or that it might affect them in some way. The law is designed so that, if you’re not at fault for the accident in Florida, the insurance rates do not go up if you take advantage or use your PIP benefits.
Initially your medical expenses are handled by PIP. What the attorney does and what we would do is anything that is not covered by PIP, by the initial $10,000, we make a claim against the other party. At the end of the day, the injured person who was injured by the negligence of another in a motor vehicle accident in Orlando is not going to be responsible for paying all the medical bills that they had to incur after the accident. If you have any questions about this or any other subject, feel free to give us a call.
