MEDICAL BILL AID
Dennis and King will support you with your injury claim settlements to get the medical care you need
Are you having trouble getting your medical bills paid after a car wreck? If so, we can help.
At Dennis and King, we worry about your medical bills so you don’t have to. It is true that getting you more money in a settlement or a lawsuit really is important to us, but that is not all we do. We are also here to lower your stress level so all you have to worry about is recovering from a car wreck or personal injuries.
Here are six tricks we have to make sure your medical bills are getting paid and you aren’t not getting collections notices.
Worker’s Compensation
If you are injured while on the job, worker’s compensation insurance is actually the primary payer and all of your bills can be sent to them.
Med Pay Car Insurance
This is coverage your own auto insurance policy that almost every Georgia and Tennessee auto policy. There is at least $1,000 to $5,000 dollars available to cover medical bills no matter who is at fault.
Health Insurance
Once you have exhausted the medical payments coverage of your car insurance, you can use your health insurance, just like someone who was not in a crash.
Attorney Liens
For those with an attorney, the next tool available to handle medical bills are “attorney liens” against the eventual settlement. This lets the patient get the care they need and the doctor waits to get paid out of the settlement of the end of the case.
Out of Pocket
Once you run out of all other option, you may have to pay expenses out of pocket temporarily. An attorney can make sure that all out of pocket costs are covered at the end of the case by the liability insurance on the car that hit you.

A Personal Approach for Accident Victims
Personal injury
In almost all personal injury claims, insurance companies will offer you significantly less than what you deserve. It’s tempting to accept the first offer, especially if you are in a great deal of pain and unable to return to work. But if you’ve already taken a devalued settlement from the insurance company and your medical bills start to pile up, there’s little legal recourse to ask for more. That’s why it’s crucial to involve a Chattanooga personal injury lawyer before you even file a claim.

Trucking Accidents
Truck accidents in the United States are on the rise. Recent statistics show that almost 150,000 people are injured in truck accidents each year, and 6,000 people are killed. The regional area of Georgia and Tennessee is a crossroads and a center for car manufacturing, river traffic, and other industries. Large trucks, semi-trucks, 18-wheelers, and other commercial vehicles are constantly on the road. This has a downside as frequent truck accidents occur on I-75, I-24, I-59, Highway 153, U.S. 27, Amnicola Highway, Corridor J, and other roadways.

ATV Accidents
Under both Tennessee and Georgia law, ATVs are not authorized for use on paved road, but children continue to bring ATVs on to our roads and highways. Georgia and Tennessee laws also prohibit the carrying of passengers on most ATVs, require children below the age of 16 to take approved ATV training courses, and require kids younger than 16 to wear helmets, eye protection, and over-the-ankle boots when operating ATVs. However, these requirements apply only when ATVs are operated on public lands, leaving kids essentially without protection when riding ATVs on private property.

Bicycle Accidents
The most tragic type of bicycle crash is a bike-car collision. Cyclists are completely defenseless traveling on 30-pound bikes when they’re surrounded by 3,000-pound cars and trucks racing by them. Pedestrians, defective bike parts, recalled bike helmets, and other ineffective bicycle safety equipment can also cause bicycle accidents. Bike accidents can result in wrongful death or serious injuries such as broken bones, amputation, traumatic brain injury, neck, back, and spinal cord injuries.

Boating Accidents
One of three factors usually cause boat accidents: an inexperienced boater, an intoxicated operator, or a boat malfunction. More than a third of both fatal and non-fatal boat accidents are alcohol-related. It is estimated that boat operators with a blood alcohol content of .10 or higher are 10 times more likely to be injured or killed in a boat accident than sober operators.
