Retain Copies of Medical Bills  

Posted by Patrick J. Walsh | Apr 02, 2025 | 0 Comments

If you have been injured in an accident, keeping detailed records of your medical expenses is crucial to ensuring you receive full compensation for your losses.

Why Keeping Medical Bills is Important  

  • Obtain and duplicate copies of all medical, hospital, and drug bills.
  • Send copies of these bills to your attorney periodically to keep your case file updated.
  • Track additional expenses related to your injuries, such as:
    • Transportation costs to and from medical appointments.
    • Medical equipment or assistive devices (crutches, braces, etc.).
    • Over-the-counter and prescription medications.
  • Keep all receipts for medical-related expenses.

Maintaining a comprehensive record of all medical expenses and related costs will help maximize your compensation and strengthen your case.

Your Life Can Change in an Instant  

A car accident or personal injury can disrupt your life in many ways:

  • Physical pain and a long recovery process.
  • Mounting medical bills that create financial stress.
  • Inability to work, causing lost wages and financial hardship.
