After a car accident, you’re probably aware that you need to contact your insurance provider. They will help you file a claim so you can have your repairs covered. When it comes to taking care of your medical claims, you have health insurance that you can rely on. If you’ve decided to go the route of chiropractic care for any auto accident injuries that you’ve experienced, you may be wondering if your health insurance is going to help you out.
Paying out of pocket can be costly, so it’s important that you inquire with your insurance provider to see what’s covered. Many providers are now providing partial or full coverage for things like soft tissue damage, chronic pain, therapy and much more, when being treated by a chiropractic professional.
Your Coverage Plan
Chiropractic care is typically considered alternative healthcare, but many insurance companies are covering it. These alternatives therapies have become more and more popular as people reap the benefits of something that’s not quite conventional in the field of medicine. You’ll likely need to pay a co-pay for your chiropractor visits. You may also have to meet a certain deductible on an annual basis, depending on the type of coverage plan that you have.
While you probably aren’t planning ahead when it comes to chiropractic care after a vehicular accident, you may want to think about the kind of coverage that you have when open enrollment comes around for your healthcare plan. It’s nice to have access to these kinds of treatment options for a variety of health issues and problems that you may have along the way.

Injuries and At-Fault Insurance Coverage
If you were injured in an auto accident, there are certain states that will require insurance to pay for your treatment. The state of Colorado requires insurance companies to provide at least $25,000 for bodily injury cases. Chiropractor services generally fall under this criteria, especially if you’re planning on short term care for car accident injury recovery purposes.
Long term care can sometimes be necessary for more serious injuries, and this is something that you’ll need to look into when it comes to your insurance. You may need to seek approval for long term care, depending on what kind of treatments and therapies have been recommended to your by our staff.
