It's been my experience the answer is yes. We also were rear ended, the other party was completely and totally At Fault. This caused me to have to get a lawyer as the insurance company was not paying the medical bills that were accumulating which I would have ultimately been responsible for. The Dr's were not interested in treating as well because they weren't getting paid. Having a lawyer guarantee's that the Dr's will be paid, you will get the treatment you need and you will not be responsible for the expensive medical bills. It also simplifies the billing process. If you receive a bill at home put it in the mail it goes to the lawyer. You will not have to spend hours on the phone trying to figure out who is billing who or lose sleep over whether or not you would have to be responsible for the huge expenses.

The insurance company won't pay out until you have a medical release, but how are you going to get a medical release if they won't pay for the treatment. Makes no sense.

In an auto accident in California do you bill your auto insurance as the primary insurance or your health insurance?

If you have both medical insurance and auto insurance, the primary company billed will depend on the situation. If your injuries and medical costs were caused by an auto accident and you carry Medical Payments coverage, you will bill your auto insurance provider. If you do not carry Med Pay insurance coverage, as it is optional in the state of California, the circumstances will depend on who is deemed at fault for the accident. If the other party is at fault, you will bill their insurance company and will advise your claims adjuster as well. If you are deemed at fault and do not carry Med Pay, the only insurance you can bill is your medical insurance provider. Be sure your medical insurance provider does not exclude injuries caused in an automobile accident before approving chiropractic care.
