Understanding Florida's Personal Injury Protection (PIP) 14-Day Rule
In Florida, Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance is designed to cover medical expenses and certain other costs, regardless of who is at fault in an auto accident. A crucial aspect of Florida's PIP statute is the 14-day rule, which mandates that individuals involved in a car accident must seek medical attention within 14 days of the incident to be eligible for PIP benefits. Failing to obtain medical care within this timeframe can result in the denial of coverage for accident-related injuries.
Act Within the 14-Day Window
Time is of the essence. To protect your health and your eligibility for PIP benefits, schedule an appointment with us as soon as possible following your accident. Early intervention can prevent potential complications and support a smoother recovery process.
Important Disclaimer: If you are experiencing severe pain or believe you have a medical emergency, please seek immediate attention by calling 911 or visiting the nearest emergency room before contacting our office.
At Altus Chiropractic, your well-being is our priority. Let us be your first call after an auto accident to ensure you receive the care and support you need during this critical time.
