Wife's Lawyer Won't Return Husband's Calls About Unpaid Medical Bills?

Question: What could I do to get insurance to pay for medical expenses?
Question Detail: My wife's lawyer has been trying to place a lien on the insurance company of the person who caused and injured her in an auto accident. The insurance company has refused to pay her medical expenses to date. Her condition has worsened in the last 2 months. I have scheduled an appointment with a specialist who requires a fee for his service, but additional treatment will require insurance. What course of action should I pursue? I have left messages with her lawyer but have not received any response.



Answer:  The lawyer represents your wife, not you, however, he or she should be able to explain what the plan is to her.  If there is a written denial, then her health insurance should be notified that they are the primary payor, subject to a lien on any third party settlement.
