2013 Legal changes in Medical Benefits provided by your Auto Insurance:
Major changes are in store for Florida Automobile Driver's in 2013 as their
Personal Injury Protection (PIP) benefits will be greatly reduced and made more
difficult to access. As part of Florida's No-fault Automobile Insurance
Law, all drivers are required to carry $10,000 in Personal Injury
Protection to ensure your full and timely recovery from any injuries suffered in
a car accident. Beginning January 1, 2013, you will still be required to carry
$10,000 in PIP coverage, however, you're access to this coverage for your
medical needs will be significantly limited.
What You Need To Know:
-You must be examined
and begin treatment within 14 days of an auto accident or you will
completely lose access to all $10,000 worth of PIP benefits.
Previously, victims injured in an auto accident could use their PIP benefits for
necessary medical treatment for as long as 2 years following a car crash.
Going forward, it is imperative that those involved in automobile accidents
obtain an examination and auto accident injury screening within 2 weeks of the
accident to avoid losing their insurance benefits.
-The new law also limits PIP insurance coverage to only $2,500 for those who have not
been determined to have an "Emergency Medical Condition."
This can be a somewhat ambiguously defined term in medical
publications. Therefore, it is important that you seek the help of a
specialist trained in the examination of auto accident injuries within 14 days
of your accident to determine the extent of your injuries and ensure that you
are able to secure all of your available insurance benefits.
-If your Auto Insurance Carrier
denies coverage to you for either of the above reasons, you may still be
eligible for coverage of medically necessary treatment in our offices
through the use of a Letter of Protection if you are being represented by an
Attorney and are filing a claim for recovery against the at-fault
driver in the car crash. Remember, you always have the right
to obtain legel counsel for the early termination of your PIP
benefits. We maintain good relationships with quality personal
injury attorneys in the community should you need a legal referral.

Frequently Asked Questions
What conditions does the West Palm Beach Chiropractor treat?
Our West Palm Beach Physicians are skilled at treating Personal Injury cases, Auto Accident Injuries, Slip and Fall injuries, Sports Injuries and most of the aches and pains of daily life. Chiropractic care is used most often to treat neuromusculoskeletal complaints, including but not limited to back pain, neck pain, joint pain in the arms or legs, and headaches. We also utilize condition-specific physiotherapy for acute and chronic pain patients.
Do you accept insurance?
We accept most major medical insurance plans as well as Florida No-Fault Personal Injury Protection auto insurance benefits for those injured in a car accident. We also have reasonable cash payment plans for those without insurance who still need access to our high quality care. We will gladly verify your insurance coverage and submit all billing paperwork for you so you can focus on your health and recovery.
I suffer from Headaches. Are there any alternatives to regular NSAID (Aspirin, Advil, Tylenol, etc.) use?
It is likely that a combination of chiropractic treatment and manual therapy will provide relief for your headaches. Frequently with headache patients, the vertebrae in the upper neck lose their normal range of motion and the muscles that attach to the base of the skull become overly tight and squeeze or compress the nerves that branch out over the head. This results in pain that radiates over the top or around the head and sometimes into the eyes. Conservative, gentle chiropractic care restores the vertebral range of motion, which in turn reduces the muscle tension and subsequent nerve compression, resulting in a reduction of headache pain. Non-surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy may be used as well to relieve nerve pressure as a result of bulging or herniated discs in the cervical spine. If you suffer from headaches and/or notice stiffness in your neck, then give us a call. We offer short term, affordable relief care for your headache!
What should I do if I have been in a West Palm Beach Auto Accident?
After calling 911 and assisting the authorities in documenting the accident, The first thing you should do once you've been involved in an auto accident is to obtain a medical examination. Our West Palm Beach Physicians specialize in managing Personal Injury cases and are very experienced in diagnosing and treating the many conditions that may arise after a west palm beach auto accident. It is very important that you contact them as soon as possible after an accident so that they can examine you for injuries; some of which you may not immediately be aware of. One of the most common auto accident injuries we see in our west palm beach, fl injury clinics is whiplash. Whiplash is an injury that occurs when the neck is whipped back and forth from the sudden impact of a car crash. This can cause sprains and strains to the ligaments and tendons that support your neck. It can also cause damage to the fragile discs and nerves in your cervical spine. These injuries can result in severe pain and stiffness as well as headaches and neurological symptoms such as numbness and tingling in the arms and hands. Therefore, it is important that you get evaluated by a qualified auto accident injury specialist. We have clinics conveniently located in West Palm Beach and Lake Worth for convenient access to one of our Palm Beach County Injury Doctors. The presentation for whiplash injuries can take weeks or months before painful symptoms appear. However, if you seek treatment promptly; pain and long-term damage can be minimized or avoided all together. Our west palm beach accident injury specialists can also direct you to legal counsel if necessary to make sure that you receive all of your rightful benefits with no out of pocket expense to you.
Do I have to see my medical doctor before I see a chiropractor?
No. Our West palm beach physicians are primary health care providers. That means you do not need a referral from your family doctor to come and see us. Our chiropractic physicians are skilled at examining patients for whatever may ail them and either providing same day treatment on site or referring out to an appropriate specialist if necessary. Our West Palm Beach chiropractor provides primary care services and will make any necessary referrals for medical services that we don’t offer in our office.
How is a chiropractic adjustment performed?
Chiropractic adjustment or manipulation is a procedure that utilizes the highly refined skills developed during years of chiropractic education. Our west palm beach chiropractors may use their hands or a mechanical instrument called an activator to manipulate the joints of the body, particularly the spine, in order to reduce pain and enhance joint function. Chiropractic manipulation is a highly controlled procedure that rarely causes discomfort. Our west palm beach chiropractor will adapt the procedure to meet the specific needs of each patient. Patients often note positive changes in their symptoms immediately following treatment.
Is chiropractic treatment appropriate for children?
Yes, children can benefit from chiropractic care. Children are very physically active and experience many types of falls and blows from activities of daily living as well as from participating in sports. Injuries such as these may cause many symptoms including back and neck pain, stiffness, soreness or discomfort. Our west palm beach chiropractic care is always adapted to the individual patient. It is a highly skilled treatment, and in the case of children, very gentle.
How safe is chiropractic treatment?
The process of chiropractic adjustment is a safe, efficient procedure which is performed nearly one million times every working day in the United States. Our west palm beach chiropractor uses gentle, non-invasive chiropractic care; therefore the body’s response to chiropractic care is far more predictable than its reactions to invasive treatments like drugs or surgical procedures.
