How accident medical bills are paid in Iowa

Iowa is an at-fault (tort) state: the at-fault driver's liability insurance pays injury costs, usually at settlement. Until then, care is paid by your health insurance, your own med-pay coverage. Tell the pain clinic you were in an accident and how you plan to pay.

After an injury: what to do first

  • Get checked the same day for any head injury, severe pain or numbness; urgent care or an ER comes before a pain clinic.
  • Report a work injury to your employer in writing; workers' compensation then pays approved care (Iowa Division of Workers' Compensation).
  • A pain specialist is the right next step when pain lasts beyond a few weeks or limits work and sleep.
  • Keep every visit, prescription and missed workday in one folder.

Choosing a pain doctor in Des Moines

  • Check the license with the Iowa Board of Medicine. Physicians can also be looked up on DocInfo.org.
  • Ask whether the doctor is board certified in pain medicine (through anesthesiology, PM&R or neurology).
  • Ask which procedures are done in the office and which at a surgery center, and who reads your imaging.
  • Bring a list of medicines, prior imaging (MRI, X-ray) and the dates your pain started or changed.
