MLB Series Part 3: How To Find A Doctor Who Works On A Medical Lien

This is part 3 in a 4 part series about explaining Medical Lien Basics to your client.

We’re continuing our series on explaining a medical lien to your client for the first time. Attorneys can use this series as a way to explain the basics. As a recent addition to the Doctors on Liens team, it wasn’t long ago that I was learning the basics myself. Hopefully this Q&A can help you answer your client’s questions in a straight forward manner. We’ve discussed what a medical lien is and why it can be an integral part of your client’s recovery and legal case. This now begs the question that we will answer today in part three:

How does my client find a doctor who will work on a lien basis?

In most cases, they won’t. You will. That’s why it’s so important your client found a reputable attorney like yourself who is experienced with personal injury and workers’ compensation cases. Once you understand the extent of your client’s injuries, you can likely find them a doctor who works on a lien basis. But it’s not always easy. Finding chiropractors, medical doctors, and specialists who are familiar with working on a lien basis can be tough when the client lives in a unfamiliar area or needs a specific type of specialist. That’s why attorneys, like you, rely on Doctors on Liens™ to find the best doctors anywhere.

Even if you have never worked with one of our doctors before, your client can be confident the doctor treating them is pre-screened, pre-qualified, and has the Doctors on Liens stamp of approval.

At this point, your client is probably saying “I’m relieved to know I’ll be able to find medical treatment on a lien basis. But aren’t there all types of doctors out there? What if my injuries require a specialist or what if I’ve suffered emotional injuries or distress?” Let’s tackle that important question in part four of this series.
