MORE INFORMATION ON INSURANCE-COVERED MEDICAL MASSAGE
Car Accident Claims – Personal Injury Protection (PIP)
If you own a car and have car insurance, you may have Personal Injury Protection coverage, also known as “PIP” coverage (unless you waived this provision on your policy).
If you have an accident, and you have PIP, normally your auto insurance company will cover your medical needs whether it is your fault or not. You will need a prescription from your doctor, a claim number, the date the accident happened, and the name and telephone number of the adjuster from your personal car insurance company.
If the accident was the fault of the other car, the other driver’s insurance is called “third party coverage.” We do not bill the other driver’s insurance for third-party coverage. We will only bill your own insurance. Please call your car insurance company and ask if they will cover your expenses under your PIP coverage and mediate with the other insurance company for you. In that case, we will bill your auto insurance for your payments. If your insurance company will not do this for you, you can still receive massage by paying when you are in the office for your treatment and seek reimbursement from the other driver’s insurance company when you settle with them.
Labor and Industries (L&I) Claims
If you are injured on the job, you are entitled to medical coverage from your employer. You must first fill out forms at work, go to a doctor to get treatment, get a claim number, notify Washington State Department of Labor and Industry and get a prescription from your primary care physician stating diagnosis and length of time required for treatment. If your doctor is unsure how long it will take, a good measure is to request 6 massages and reevaluate.
We are happy to write reports to keep your doctor informed of your progress and communicate with your claims adjuster to authorize further treatment.
