Does Insurance Cover Chiropractic After a Car Accident?

Yes!

Auto Insurance Policies

auto insurance

Most auto insurance policies will cover chiropractic treatment after an accident if it’s considered “reasonably necessary.” This can include multiple visits per week for severe injuries.

Important things to keep in mind:

  • Billing: Auto insurance companies typically pay your bills after all treatments are completed, not on a visit-by-visit basis.
  • Fault: If you were at fault, you’ll need PIP (Personal Injury Protection) coverage on your policy. If another driver was at fault, their insurance should cover your treatment, even if they only have liability coverage.

PIP Policies

Personal injury protection policies are generally accepted at chiropractic clinics. PIPs can protect you against the costs of your medical bills even if you’re at fault for the auto accident. They can also cover expenses of other passengers in your vehicle.

Additionally, auto policies with PIP can pay for health insurance deductibles, lost wages due to the accident, lost jewelry, and services like childcare. Health insurance policies don’t account for these kinds of expenses.

Attorney Letters of Protection (LOPs)

A letter of protection is a document sent to a medical provider by the accident victim’s attorney. It’s an agreement that states the patient will pay their expenses out of the settlement they expect to receive after their case is over.

LOPs allow auto accident victims to get treatment immediately, even if they don’t have cash available right away.
