Medical Liens Tend to Over Treat and Over Charge Patients
Car accident injury victims need to choose their medical providers prudently. "Car crash victims can be over charged for medical services, especially if they sign a medial lien," says John Bisnar. "Doing so means doctors are paid directly from the compensation amount when a case finally settles. This can be a very enticing deal for the medical provider." The reason for this is that doctors and chiropractors will often work together to "over treat" a patient and enlarge the final medical bill with unnecessary and high priced procedures. They will also stall and evade requests for copies of billing statements and other medical records. When the case settles, they're first in line to collect their bills, leaving little left over for the accident victim's other expenses.
The other problem with medical liens is that they can be very tempting for cash-strapped accident victims, especially if they lack proper medical insurance. With a medical lien, bills can be deferred for as long as the trial or settlement negotiations continue. "In some instances, arbitrators have been asked to reduce the inflated amounts charged by the medical providers," notes John Bisnar. "But rather than agree to the reduced amounts, the lien providers sued their patients for the original charges, pointing back to the medical liens, which their patients had signed months or even years earlier."
