Indiana Car Accident Doctor

An Indiana Car Accident doctor is waiting for your call. After you have been injured in a car wreck, it’s very important to see an Indiana auto accident doctor. They specialize in personal injuries. An Indiana personal injury physician has the experience to treat you, document your case, and help you get the settlement you deserve from your personal injury lawyer. No treatment, no settlement. A settlement is based on your personal injuries.

Minimum liability limits in Indiana are:

• UM Bodily Injury: $25,000/$50,000
• Property Damage: $10,000
• New auto liability policies in Indiana must also include uninsured and underinsured motorist’s coverage, unless the policyholder rejects it in writing. The minimum limits for these coverages are:
• Uninsured motorists: $25,000 for bodily injury per person, $50,000 for bodily injury per accident, and $25,000 for property damage per accident
• Underinsured motorists: $50,000 for bodily injury per person and per accident

Indiana does not have Pip (personal injury protection). Pip is to cover your medical care and might cover lost wages and other expenses in the event of a car wreck. You could purchase med pay or medical payments. Med pay is designed to pay for medical care that is deemed necessary and reasonable by the insurance company.

Med pay is a little more limited than pip. It might be a good idea to purchase med pay if you do not have any health insurance. Either way an car accident doctor will still treat you.
