Here are some options for getting your bills paid short of paying them yourself out of pocket.
Check your insurance company’s medical payment coverage.
This will reimbursed to your company at the end of the case once it is resolved.
The at fault driver’s insurance company may have medical payment coverage that will also cover your medical treatment.
Submit your bills to your health insurance company for payment.
Your health insurance company will be reimbursed at the end of the case for the bills it paid on your behalf.
Medicare and Medicaid may pay for your treatment upfront, and then they will be repaid at the end of the case.
If you cannot get your bills paid through these avenues, then you will have to ask the provider rely on your recovery at the end of treatment.
