If you stop treatment early on, you may be jeopardizing your accident claim. Insurance companies are always finding reasons to deny or devalue injury claims. If you refused medical treatment after your accident claim or even stopped the treatment recommended by the doctor, this may give the insurance company the reason they’re looking for to deny or devalue your claim.
The insurance adjuster’s assessment of your injuries is based almost entirely on your medical records. Gaps in treatment may cause the adjuster to “devalue” your claim. It is best to complete all treatment recommended by the doctor, especially to maximize your settlement.
