Necesitaba tratamiento. Ahora el hospital me acosa. \u00bfQu\u00e9 hago?\"<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This type of statement is all too common. Someone is injured in a car accident, truck accident, motorcycle accident\u2026 They seek the medical treatment they need. But now, those medical bills are adding up. A financial representative at the local hospital is reaching out, following up on a bill for treatment provided in the emergency room. It may be a radiologist\u2019s office, the physical therapist or, worse, a collection agent.<\/p>\n<p>This person may have been in a collision or was injured through no fault of their own. He didn\u2019t ask to spend that Sunday afternoon many months ago in the Emergency Department. Or miss a handful of afternoons from his job to travel to and work with a therapist. But, he did. And medical care is expensive. The medical bills after an accident accumulate, growing into a mountain on the kitchen counter.<\/p>\n<p>Entonces, \u00bfqu\u00e9 debe hacer si sufre lesiones como consecuencia de las acciones de otra persona y necesita atenci\u00f3n y tratamiento m\u00e9dico?<\/p>\n<h4>En primer lugar, da un paso atr\u00e1s. Las facturas m\u00e9dicas tras un accidente son solo facturas m\u00e9dicas.<\/h4>\n<p>Preg\u00fantese: \"\u00bfQu\u00e9 har\u00eda si me lesionara en casa?\". O, dicho de otro modo: \"\u00bfC\u00f3mo gestionar\u00eda mis facturas m\u00e9dicas si no tuviera una reclamaci\u00f3n por lesiones?\".<\/p>\n<p>If you have health insurance, use it. If you have health insurance, provide your insurer\u2019s name to your health care provider. If you have health insurance, insist that the provider submit its claims through your health insurer.<\/p>\n<p>The reason is simple: submission of your claims through your health insurer guarantees that the claims will be promptly processed and paid. You will be responsible for any co-pay or deductible required by your policy. But, in each and every case, <strong>ese importe siempre ser\u00e1 inferior a lo que usted deber\u00eda si el proveedor le facturara todo el saldo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>La presentaci\u00f3n puntual de los cargos a su aseguradora tambi\u00e9n evitar\u00e1 la acumulaci\u00f3n de la monta\u00f1a de facturas en la encimera de su cocina y todo el estr\u00e9s y la ansiedad que conlleva saber que debe dinero a proveedores por un tratamiento que nunca quiso ni dese\u00f3.<\/p>\n<h4>En segundo lugar, busque inmediatamente asesoramiento jur\u00eddico si sus proveedores se niegan a presentar sus facturas a sus aseguradoras m\u00e9dicas.<\/h4>\n<p>En muchos casos, el proveedor tiene un contrato con la aseguradora que le obliga a remitir sus gastos a la aseguradora para su tramitaci\u00f3n y pago. <strong>y reducci\u00f3n del importe facturado<\/strong>. This is the case whether your health insurance is through a large, national insurer such as United Healthcare or Anthem, or a government-administered program like Medicare or Medicaid.<\/p>\n<p>In all cases, your health insurer will have a deadline during which claims must be submitted. This deadline is mandatory. Claims must be submitted before the expiration of the deadline for the insurer to be obligated to process and pay the claim. So, remember, time is of the essence.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/northlandinjurylaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Bills-Public-Domain-520x245-300x141-1.webp\" alt=\"Second, immediately seek legal counsel if your providers refuse to submit your bills to your health insurers\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Pagar las facturas m\u00e9dicas tras un accidente puede ser abrumador.<\/p>\n<h4>Third, never, ever, ever provide your motor vehicle insurance information to the provider.<\/h4>\n<p>Large corporate providers, usually the financial officers of your local hospital, want this information so that they can directly submit their bills to your motor vehicle insurer. These providers are hoping that you have <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dmv.org\/insurance\/medical-payments-coverage.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>cobertura de gastos m\u00e9dicos<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Medical payment coverage is a type of insurance that reimburses you dollar for the cost of care you require following a collision. The coverage exists without regard to whether you were at fault. If you require treatment and you have medical payments coverage, you can use the coverage to take care of your responsibilities \u2013 the co-pay and deductibles you owe under your health insurance policy.<\/p>\n<p>Sus proveedores de asistencia sanitaria quieren esta informaci\u00f3n porque, si usted se la facilita y ellos presentan sus facturas a su aseguradora de autom\u00f3viles, esa aseguradora les pagar\u00e1 sus gastos d\u00f3lar por d\u00f3lar, lo que significa que el proveedor recuperar\u00e1 m\u00e1s de lo que de otro modo recibir\u00eda de su aseguradora de salud.<\/p>\n<h4>Por \u00faltimo, busque inmediatamente asesoramiento jur\u00eddico si no tiene seguro m\u00e9dico.<\/h4>\n<p>Usted tiene opciones, pero esas opciones dependen de su situaci\u00f3n financiera, la situaci\u00f3n que condujo a su lesi\u00f3n, el tipo de da\u00f1os y p\u00e9rdidas que sufri\u00f3 y el proveedor del que busca tratamiento.<\/p>\n<p>Estos consejos para manejar sus facturas m\u00e9dicas despu\u00e9s de un accidente puede ahorrar tiempo, dinero, e incluso salvar su cordura.
