We have a personal injury case where my husband was injured in a rearend accident. He went to the hospital right after the accident and was given meds, over about 2 months my husband seen a spine Dr and had a MRI done. The findings were that my husband needed to have a cortizone injection in his back, due to several things wrong. But through all the Dr visit and MRI and outpatient visit our medical ins. paid for it all and was given a discount by each provider above. Now the adjuster is saying that she to gets this discount and says that she will only pay what the medical ins paid. Is this true that she gets the discount or not??Thanks, Cindy

This is not true. The insurance company has pay your medical bills in full. This means the full amount before health insurance paid. The adjuster is not entitled to a discount. Your husband's case is worth three times his full medical bills and lost wages. This way, he also gets money for his pain and suffering. if the adjuster refuses to cooperate, file a lawsuit.
