How accident medical bills are paid in Iowa

Iowa is an at-fault (tort) state: the at-fault driver's liability insurance pays injury costs, usually at settlement. Until then, care is paid by your health insurance, your own med-pay coverage. Tell the pain clinic you were in an accident and how you plan to pay.

Symptoms that show up days after a crash

  • Neck pain and stiffness, headaches at the base of the skull (whiplash) often start 24 to 72 hours later.
  • Low back pain that spreads into a leg, numbness or tingling can mean an irritated nerve and should be checked.
  • Go to an emergency room right away for severe headache, weakness, confusion or loss of bladder control.
  • Keep every visit, prescription and missed workday in one folder; your insurer and attorney will ask for them.

Choosing a pain doctor in Council Bluffs

  • Check the license with the Iowa Board of Medicine. Physicians can also be looked up on DocInfo.org.
  • Ask whether the doctor is board certified in pain medicine (through anesthesiology, PM&R or neurology).
  • Ask which procedures are done in the office and which at a surgery center, and who reads your imaging.
  • Bring a list of medicines, prior imaging (MRI, X-ray) and the dates your pain started or changed.
