Get Back on the Road: Car Crash Injury Recovery
Auto accidents create complex medical situations requiring both immediate treatment and long-term rehabilitation. Our auto accident chiropractors in Port St. Lucie specialize in collision recovery while navigating Florida’s insurance requirements.
Understanding Florida’s 14-Day Rule:
The Florida PIP law establishes strict deadlines for accident victims seeking insurance coverage. State regulations require medical evaluation within 14 days of the collision to qualify for Personal Injury Protection benefits. Missing this window can result in complete denial of coverage, leaving you responsible for all treatment costs.
Insurance Coverage Essentials:
- PIP requirements: Florida auto insurance coverage mandates minimum protection levels.
- Emergency exceptions: Prior ER visits count toward the 14-day requirement.
- Documentation standards: Qualified providers must maintain specific medical records.
- Coverage limits: Understanding your policy maximizes available benefits.
- Coordination of benefits: We manage all insurance communications on your behalf.
Common Collision Injuries:
- Cervical whiplash: Hyperextension trauma from rapid acceleration changes.
- Lumbar compression: Lower back stress from impact forces.
- Disc herniation: Spinal disc material displaced by collision trauma.
- Soft tissue damage: Muscle, tendon, and ligament tears throughout the body.
- Joint dysfunction: Misalignment affecting mobility and function.
- Delayed symptoms: Pain appearing days or weeks after the accident.
