Auto Injury Treatment in Coconut Creek FL

If your car moved in the accident, your spine probably moved as well!

Top 3 Reasons Why You Should See a Coconut Creek FL Doctor of Chiropractic Immediately After an Auto Accident:

1. Recovery Process May Get Delayed – Seeking a chiropractic exam in Coconut Creek FL is imperative following an accident. A chiropractor is trained to identify any misalignments or shifting of the spine following trauma. Failing to seek immediate medical care after an auto accident can be costly, delay the recovery process, or worse cause future irreparable damage to the spine.
2. Hidden Injuries – Some of these injuries can be hidden or delayed and not even develop for weeks to months after the accident.
3. Timing is Crucial – Florida’s 14-Day Rule states you must obtain medical care within 14 days if you suffer injuries in a traffic accident in Florida, or else run the risk of your insurance company denying your claim. Florida Statute 627.736, the no-fault insurance law, is the law that requires medical attention within 14 days. A claimant must fulfill one condition to qualify for these personal injury protection benefits in Florida – going to the doctor within two weeks of the accident. Failing to receive medical attention and services within 14 days after the auto accident gives your insurance company the right to deny medical benefits. The law permits insurance companies to withhold compensation for medical care if the policyholder does not receive medical care within the time limit.
