Medical Care and Expenses
Keep detailed records of any and all medical treatment you receive as a result of the accident. Write down any and all visits to hospitals, clinics or doctors’ offices. This includes any type of medical treatment, so physical therapy, mental health appointments and dentist appointments should be documented as well. Keep receipts for all expenditures, including co-pays on office visits. Keep a log of prescriptions, including your out-of-pocket cost for the prescriptions. You will want to keep track of any over-the-counter medication as well. For each and every entry in your log, mark the date and, if possible, the time. Save receipts to prove your expenses.
