ποΈπΌ How a $400,000 health insurance bill got reduced to under $100,000.
When we talk about maximizing your compensation after an accident, itβs not just about the settlement you reach with the at-fault driver. Itβs also about defending your settlement against health insurance companies.
We recently settled a case for the absolute maximum policy limit of $500,000. But the client's health insurance company had paid $400,000 in medical bills, and their policy explicitly stated they were entitled to dollar-for-dollar reimbursement. If they got their way, virtually the client's entire settlement would have vanished to pay back the insurance company. βπ
But we didn't just accept their fine print. Because we understand the highly complex web of subrogation law, we analyzed the health insurer's specific structure and realized that under federal law, they actually had no right to demand a dollar-for-dollar payback.
We fought back, convinced them of the law, and negotiated that $400,000 claim down to under $100,000.
That legal maneuver saved our client over $300,000, which went directly into their pocket instead of the insurance company's bank account. This is why having an experienced trial attorney matters. πͺβοΈ
