How to Start a Car Accident Injury Claim
Car accident injury claims can be overwhelming. This guide will walk you through the process to get started with a Car Injury Clinic like Absolute Health & Wellness.
Steps to Start an Auto Accident Injury Claim
Step 1 - Make a Personal Injury Claim
Call your auto insurance company. Make a personal injury claim. They may take a few days, but they'll issue you a claim number and assign an insurance adjuster to your case.
Step 2 - Book an Initial Assessment at Absolute Health & Wellness
We recommend booking an assessment as soon as possible. We'll get you in as soon as possible.
Step 3 - Fill Out Your OCF-1 and OCF-5 Forms
Before you start your treatment, you'll need to fill out two important forms.
OCF 1: Is an overview of your personal details and pertinent details around your auto accident.
OCF 5: This is Permission to Disclose - it's permission for our clinic to communicate with your insurance company
Your adjuster will mail a package to you, which will include this OCF 1 and OCF 5. You can also pick these up at our clinic, or download them here. Download the OCF 1 here and OCF 5 here.
Step 4 - Initial Assessment at Absolute Health & Wellness
Come 15 mins early for the first appointment.
We will need: a photocopy of your driver's license, your completed OCF 1 and OCF 5 (we'll send them to your adjuster), your benefits info you have benefits.
We'll then book you for your follow up appointments.
Lastly, we will submit a treatment plan to your auto adjuster.
