Once you have identified your medical bills as stated in the previous episode, the next step is to pay them. This is what Richard Duquette discusses on today's episode, Paying Your Medical Bills. Tune in for tips and insights to guide you in the process!
To pay your medical bills, you can use your private health insurance. First consider the type of insurance you have. They key is to pay your medical providers.
You will need to provide you healthcare policy number, contact information and insurance information. Also, follow up with email or calls.
It is particularly important to prompt your insurance company with your medical bills. Sometimes the bills are already paid before the company hears about the injury case.
You need to prompt and follow up with your insurance company because they might cut off your rights. There are companies who do that when they think you are not cooperating with them.
As much as possible, negotiate quickly to receive discounts. Doing so also enables you to have a bigger net recovery.
Another thing you can do is use your medical pay in your auto policy. Often you can max out the bills using your healthcare insurance company first, and leave the balance to your medical pay.
You can use your medical pay if you don't have insurance. It can help you in a big way.
