Who Pays Medical Bills After a Huntsville Pedestrian Accident?
One of the first questions injured pedestrians ask is: “Who is going to pay my medical bills?”
In Alabama, the at-fault driver is legally responsible for the injuries they cause. However, their insurance company rarely pays bills immediately. This can leave victims worried about how to afford treatment.
There are several potential sources of payment after a Huntsville pedestrian accident:
The driver’s liability insurance
Your own auto insurance medical payments coverage
Health insurance
Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage
An experienced Huntsville pedestrian accident lawyer can identify all available insurance policies and make sure you receive every dollar you are entitled to.
Never assume there is not enough insurance to cover your losses. Multiple policies may apply, and additional parties may be responsible.
