The idea behind Florida’s requirement that auto owners must carry personal injury protection (PIP) insurance is to ensure medical providers receive the payments they deserve for the care they provide to car accident victims. Unfortunately, even with the clarity of the law, insurance companies sometimes try to deny payment, treating doctors unfairly.
If this happens to you, Ged Lawyers is ready to battle the insurance company on your behalf. Trust that our Pompano Beach personal injury protection (PIP) lawyer will seek facts showing why you deserve the payment you request. Let us handle the legal and financial aspects of your case, so you can focus on providing care for victims.
Our PIP Attorneys Can Help Determine Why You Received a Claim Rejection
When you hire Ged Lawyers to represent you regarding your PIP claim, our process starts with investigating exactly why the insurance company denied your claim. Because our Florida personal injury protection (PIP) lawyers regularly represent medical providers in cases like this, we know how to approach the insurance company after its denial of your claim.
Once we understand the reason for the rejection, we can then begin to collect facts that show why the insurance company is making a mistake. This way, we can get to the root of the problem and convince the insurer to promptly pay you.
The Insurance Company May Claim a Violation of PIP Coverage
Insurers may try to say that the patient you are treating does not qualify for payment under PIP, which is why they denied your request for payment. The insurer might be correct, as PIP insurance coverage only applies in its entirety if the injured party seeks treatment within 14 days of the accident.
The insurance company may also try to deny your request for payment if it says you are treating the patient for injuries that did not occur in the crash or that PIP does not cover.
In these types of cases, our PIP lawyers in Pompano Beach can collect evidence to show your treatment met the conditions of PIP insurance coverage. We may then converse with the insurance company on your behalf, saving you time and allowing you to focus on treating your patients.
The Insurance Company May Claim You Filed Incorrect Information
Another reason why insurers deny PIP coverage claims from medical professionals is because of a lack of information. Perhaps the insurer is saying that you did not use the right claim forms or provide enough information for it to understand the claim you made.
What our Pompano Beach PIP attorneys often find is that insurers use excuses for incorrect or incomplete information to try to frustrate medical providers. They hope the medical providers will simply give up, leaving the money in the hands of the insurance company to try to increase its profits.
With Ged Lawyers on your side, we cut through the red tape that insurers throw your way. Our PIP attorneys often find that insurance companies are far more willing to listen to your concerns when we present them on your behalf.

We Help You Understand PIP Insurance Coverage
Often called no-fault insurance, PIP coverage is part of Florida’s Motor Vehicle No-Fault Law, which has been in place for decades. This type of coverage aims to make certain that doctors receive payment for the medical care they provide to car accident victims without having to worry about who was at fault for the crash or having to wait for a personal injury lawsuit or claim to run its course..
We Explain What PIP Insurance Covers
As part of personal injury protection coverage, the insurer provides a certain amount of money for medical care for the driver of the car, as well as for any passengers who may not have their own PIP coverage.
At a minimum, drivers must carry $10,000 worth of PIP insurance. Some Florida drivers may carry a higher limit under the PIP coverage with their auto insurance policies.
We Help With Partial Claim Denials
PIP typically provides payment to medical providers for 80% of the total cost of the medical bills up to the limit on the victim’s policy. However, some insurers try to pay you a lower percentage rather than outright denying your entire claim. Our team at Ged Lawyers can help with this situation, too.
