Just Another Piece of Advice Concerning Motorcycle Accidents

Hopefully, everybody is having a great time at Bike Week.  The weather is beautiful here this weekend. 

Just another piece of advice concerning accidents and medical bills:  Because the no-fault law does not apply to motorcycles, there is some issue concerning who is going to pay your medical bills.  Health insurance companies tend to delay paying bills when there is a motor vehicle accident because the no-fault laws in most states make automobile insurance primary over health insurance.  Your health insurance company will need to be educated concerning their obligation to pay all medical bills from the very beginning unless there happens to be medical payment coverage on the motorcycle.  Then, that coverage would come first.

When we represent someone who has been involved in a motorcycle accident, because there typically is no insurance for medical bills on the motorcycle, we try to find competent physicians who will treat and agree to be paid when the case is resolved.  If you have any questions concerning medical bills, health insurance, automobile insurance, motorcycle insurance and those types of things, please feel free to call me anytime for free advice.  You do not need to hire me to get advice concerning these types of things.
