Surgeries are part of the medical expenses reimbursed after car accidents. Emergency treatment, X-rays, dental work, or physical therapy are part of the same category. There is no particular law applying to surgeries, and surgery does not condition the amount of compensation a victim can receive.
A large settlement usually follows after a severe injury, and severe injuries frequently require surgery as a treatment method. However, there is no direct connection between significant injury settlements and the presence of surgeries as a treatment method. To have a valid legal claim, you will have to prove the following:
- You were involved in a car accident.
- The accident resulted in injuries.
- The injuries involved financial loss.
- Another person's fault or negligence caused the accident.
