Who Pays for Ambulance Ride After Car Accident?

HOW TO PAY AMBULANCE BILL AFTER CAR ACCIDENT

After a car accident, nearly everyone involved is offered an ambulance. But who pays for the ambulance ride? Is it your health insurance? If another car was at fault, does their insurance pay the ambulance? Our car accident lawyers get asked these questions every day. In most cases, it is your own car insurance (No-Fault PIP coverage) that will pay for the ambulance ride.

Of course, some people have no choice. If you are very injured and it would be dangerous to move on your own, you have to accept the ambulance. But our lawyers have seen many situations where someone is injured but worries about the ambulance bill, so they wait and find a ride to the hospital. Sometimes, its hard to know what to do. Usually, the ambulance workers will at least check you out and discuss the risk and level of urgency with you. If you don’t ride in the ambulance there should be no charge. However, either way, your auto insurance will pay for it.
