Lien Form

Liens are agreements typically used when your patient has been in an accident ( MVA) and thus sustained some injuries or losses.

Prior to receiving care, the patient (and patient’s attorney) will usually request the healthcare provider to participate in a lien agreement.

Ultimately the patient will reach a settlement, and all their legal fees and medical bills will be paid from the settlement. Most liens are structured to hold the patient accountable for all medical expenses/services regardless of whether the patient wins their settlement or personal insurance does not cover medical expenses. Simply put, the medical provider promises the needed medical care and the patient agrees he or she will be paid when the personal injury case is closed.
