Barry Goldberg here. In the real world, there are bills to be paid and medical doctors don’t always work with lawyers and know how this works. So, your question is how do medical bills get paid during the pendency of your case? Well, the short answer is we try not to
00:20
pay the medical bills if possible during the pendency of a case. Unless someone has health insurance, in that case it goes through normal health insurance and the health insurer will have a lean on the case for later. However, there are certain medical providers that don’t
00:34
want to work with lawyers and don’t want to work with patients and they just want to get paid. So, we try and talk them into waiting to get paid. Uh sometimes we will work out a a system where they will get paid a monthly payment um in a small amount to show that we’re in
00:50
earnest and they’re going to get paid. But the big part of the medical bill gets paid at the end of the case after we settle the case. So the question is um not only how do medical bills get paid is when do they get paid and we try and push them to after the case is over whenever possible.
