🩺 Why You Should See an Accident Doctor After a Car Wreck

Accident Injury Doctor in Alaska

After a car accident, some injuries like whiplash or soft tissue damage may not appear immediately. Delaying care can make recovery harder and weaken your injury claim.

Seeing a accident doctor ensures:

  • Hidden injuries are properly diagnosed and treated.
  • Your injuries are documented for your attorney.
  • You can access care without paying out-of-pocket.

💳 How Accident Doctors Bill for Treatment

Doctors use several billing methods depending on the type of insurance available:

  • Attorney’s Lien: The most common method. Your doctor agrees to be paid from your settlement once your case resolves, no upfront payment required.
  • Medical Lien: Similar to an attorney’s lien but handled directly between the doctor and patient.
  • Medical Payments (MedPay): Optional auto insurance coverage that pays medical bills regardless of fault.
  • PIP (Personal Injury Protection): Some policies may include PIP, which covers your medical care after an accident.
  • Third-Party Billing: Some providers may bill the at-fault driver’s insurance, but this is rare in Alaska.

Most Alaska accident doctors prefer to bill through PIP, MedPay, or an attorney’s lien, ensuring you can get the care you need immediately.

⚖️ Accidents Involving Government Vehicles

If your accident involved a government vehicle, such as a police car, postal truck, or state agency vehicle, the process for filing a claim is different. You must act quickly and contact an attorney right away, as strict deadlines and special procedures apply.

Most importantly, do not wait to see a doctor. Delaying medical care can seriously your ability to prove your injuries.

📋 Alaska Auto Insurance Requirements

The minimum auto insurance coverage required for Alaska drivers is:

  • $50,000 bodily injury per person per accident
  • $100,000 bodily injury per accident (for all persons)
  • $25,000 property damage liability

This coverage ensures financial responsibility for injuries and property damage resulting from a crash.

FAQ

🩺 Do I need to see a doctor even if I don’t feel hurt after the accident?

Yes. We accept all forms of auto insurance that offer Med Pay (Medical Payments) or PIP (Personal Injury Protection). If you’re working with an attorney, we also accept attorney liens so you can receive care with no out-of-pocket cost upfront

please bring:

  • Your auto insurance claim number (if available)
  • Police/accident report
    Valid ID
  • Any attorney contact information (if applicable)


Don’t worry if you don’t have everything, we can still help get the process started.

Ideally, you should be evaluated within 72 hours of your accident. This not only improves your chances for a full recovery but also strengthens your case if you’re filing a personal injury claim. Delays in treatment may allow insurance companies to question the legitimacy of your injuries

Absolutely. If you don’t already have an attorney, we can refer you to a trusted personal injury lawyer who works on contingency and can help you with your claim. Initial consultations are always free.

Our accident doctors treat a wide range of injuries, including:

  • Whiplash and neck pain
  • Back injuries and herniated discs
  • Soft tissue damage
  • Headaches, dizziness, and concussions
  • Numbness or tingling in limbs

  • A detailed medical evaluation
  • Review of accident history and symptoms
  • Diagnostic testing (as needed)
  • A personalized treatment plan tailored to your injuries

 

We begin treatment the same day whenever possible.

No, you do not need health insurance. If your car insurance includes Med Pay or PIP, we’ll bill them directly. If you’re working with an attorney, we treat under a medical lien, so you won’t pay anything out of pocket upfront.

Most health insurance wont pay for accident care or you will be refused treatment

Treatment duration depends on the type and severity of your injuries. Some patients recover in a few weeks, while others require several months. We regularly evaluate your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed to help you recover as quickly and safely as possible
