Any auto accident injury caused by a third party, which requires medical care and treatment, is considered under a medical lien. A medical lien may cover many auto accident injuries, including car and motorcycle accidents. Here is a list of some of the injuries that may occur during an auto accident, which a medical lien may also cover:
When an auto accident is not a person's fault, there are steps to take to have the treatment covered by the responsible party or their insurance. The initial step is to file a personal injury claim with an attorney, which may result in a medical lien against the responsible party. According to the American Bar Association, "you have a negligence claim in a 'fault' state if you are injured by a driver who failed to exercise reasonable care because drivers have a duty to exercise reasonable care anytime they are on the road" (americanbar.org, 2016).
Typically, an attorney will facilitate the medical lien and work with the responsible party's insurance company to negotiate the amount covered. Essentially, a medical lien enables the injured person of the auto accident to have their medical care paid for by the other person's auto insurance. Also, medical liens allow the injured person to seek immediate medical attention without waiting months to receive their benefits.
As an existing client of Dr. Seaney for my routine chiropractic care, the morning after my auto accident I immediately contacted him because I knew that I could trust his input on what the best options were for me to receive the best care possible for my injuries. He was able to quickly recommend a personal injury lawyer that would have my best interest at heart. Dr. Seaney was also able to refer me to an MRI imaging facility to expedite the process for me to receive the necessary treatment for my injuries. He always listens to all of my concerns and truly cares about trying to help alleviate my pain. Dr. Seaney, his office manager as well as his staff are always so kind and pleasant to work with. I highly recommend Dr. Seaney.

Just what I was looking for! Dr Sweeney is Kind, patient, gentle and really really great at what he does! Melody in the office is super friendly and accommodating. They genuinely care about my treatment and recovery after being in an auto accident and I’m thankful for an alternative plan to injections and surgery. Thank you!!

I went to see Dr. Seaney right after my car accident. Dr. Seaney is knowledgeable, friendly, and he has a good sense of humor. He is very patient and is a good listener (with no rush he asked me questions to determine the root of my pain). Dr. Seaney found the treatments that worked the best for me, and I was able to feel the difference after few visits. He is flexible with his appointments, which is always a plus with a busy schedules. I would recommend him to anyone I know!

Dr. Seaney has been helping my family and I for several years. When I was in a car accident 6 years ago, he helped me get full mobility and movement back. Whether I have neck pain from physical activity, or back pain from sitting in an office chair all day, I go see Dr. Seaney for an adjustment. He listens to your concerns and develops a treatment plan specific to you, which is great! Also, he gives you tips on stretches or activities you can do on your own time, to aid in your recovery and prevent further issues. If you go see him you will feel a lot better.

I've been going to Forsyth Spinal Rehab for over 2 months, after my car was totaled. I'm already feeling so much better. They are professional and courteous and know how to fix the back. I'd give 6 stars if I could. I have 4 bulging discs that have caused major pain and disability. I highly recommend them.
