What happens if I get into a car accident?
Vero Beach, Fl.-In the state of Florida, we have Personal Injury insurance built into our auto insurance. It covers your bodily injuries even if it’s the other person’s fault. That means if you get hit by another car and have injuries due to the accident, your auto insurance picks up the bills for your treatments. No matter if you see a medical doctor, chiropractor or need any imaging for the injuries. Your insurance pays the bills. There are varying amounts of coverages of personal injury you can hold. Some policies are 80% 20% policies in which 80% percent of the bills are paid, and you cover the 20%. Some are 100% coverage. You should know what type of policy you have in case you have this unfortunate mishap. You might go to get checked out at the hospital ER and be faced with a rather large bill. I have seen a hospital blow through the entire amount of $10000 in just an hour or two and then you receive a bill for $2000.00 from the hospital because your insurance only covered 80%.
