We have been
specializing in treating Motor Vehicle Accident Injuries for over 12 years.
We bill insurance for you
and help you to understand your insurance benefits.
If you have been in
a car accident, you may need chiropractic care. At Blue Heron Chiropractic,
No Referral Is Neccesary, and
you are not required to ask permission from the insurance company to get care
from Doctor Sibilla.
Insurance companies realize the many advantages of chiropractic care, and chiropractic
treatment
is usually fully covered by automobile insurance policies, no matter who is
at fault,
and no matter whether you were the driver, a passenger, or a pedestrian.
We will help you submit the necessary insurance paperwork and file a claim with
your insurance company.
Dr. Sibilla is an integrated provider. If you need an MRI, we can get you that.
If you need referral to a neurosurgeon or pain management
specialist, we have those cooperative medical doctors within our networking.
If you need a physical therapy referral beyond what we can do in
our clinic, or if you need Acupuncture, those referral networks are already
set up for you at Blue Heron Chiropractic.
If you have been in
an accident in the State of Oregon, most automobile insurance policies are protected
with up to $15,000 of Personal Injury Protection. That means that in most cases,
coverage is available to pay for your after you have an accident, without you
having to sue someone. That means you can get chiropractic care and massage
therapy at Blue Heron Chiropractic without having to pay anything out of pocket
under most circumstances. See out "Frequently Asked Questions" below.
We will set up a treatment plan for you and document your case in a way that is accurate and helpful for you.
