Understanding Pedestrian Accident Injury Treatment
Pedestrian accidents typically result in more severe and widespread injuries than vehicle-to-vehicle collisions because the pedestrian has no protective structure around them. Common injury patterns include lower extremity fractures, hip injuries from initial impact, and upper body/head injuries from secondary impact with the hood or ground. Chiropractic treatment for pedestrian accident victims requires a comprehensive, multi-injury approach with meticulous documentation of all injured areas.

Why Chiropractic Documentation Matters for Your New York City Case
Proper medical documentation is the backbone of any personal injury claim. Here's why the right chiropractor makes all the difference:
New York Law & Your Pedestrian Accident Claim
New York is a no-fault insurance state, meaning your own auto insurance policy's PIP (Personal Injury Protection) coverage pays for your medical treatment regardless of who caused the accident. The minimum PIP coverage in New York is $50,000, which covers chiropractic treatment, lost wages, and other accident-related expenses. The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in New York is 3 years. After this deadline, you lose the right to file a lawsuit for your injuries. New York uses a pure comparative fault system, meaning you can recover damages even if you were partially at fault, though your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault. Medical Payments (MedPay) coverage is available in New York and can help cover chiropractic treatment costs regardless of fault determination.
