PROGRESSIVE CLAIMS
If Progressive is your insurance company, here are a few tips following an accident.
Tip #1: Let them know you intend to get checked out by a medical doctor (not solely a chiropractor) if you have not already done so.
Progressive Claims Department will try to reduce the amount of Personal Injury Protection coverage available to you. You have to seek treatment within 14 days of your accident. If you see only a chiropractor and not a medical doctor, Progressive Claims will argue that your PIP limits must be reduced to $2,500 instead of the $10,000 in coverage that you purchased.
Tip #2: If you feel any pain following an accident, even if it seems minor, make sure you let Progressive Claims know.
Progressive’s Claims is will try to minimize claims payments by arguing that accident victims did not complain about injuries shortly after the accident. Therefore, Progressive Claims will argue that the injuries are not accident related. It’s common for people involved in accidents not to feel much pain right afterward due to adrenaline. Progressive Claims knows this. Avoid this by reporting pain following an accident.
