Car Accidents in Utah
Throughout Utah, crashes occur daily on both major roads and local neighborhood streets. With over 61,000 wrecks reported in 2023, intersections and thoroughfares like North 600 West Street in Orem remain common sites for injury-causing collisions. These wrecks often leave victims dealing with more than just physical pain—they frequently face unexpected financial hardship.
One of the largest burdens that follow a wreck is the mounting cost of medical bills. Here’s how that typically unfolds:
- Emergency Services: The cost of ambulance transport and ER care can quickly exceed thousands of dollars—often before insurance kicks in.
- Follow-Up Care: Specialists, tests, and therapies are typically required in the weeks or months after a crash, leading to multiple copays and deductibles.
- Out-of-Network Surprise Bills: Victims may unknowingly receive care from providers not covered by their insurance, resulting in unexpected and inflated charges.
- Medication Costs: Prescriptions to manage pain, inflammation, or mental health following the crash can add another layer of monthly expenses.
