Nebraska 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 Omaha
Check the license with the Nebraska Board of Medicine and Surgery. 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.
