The cost of rehabilitation for brain injuries is an important part of the long term medical expenses which should be included in an insurance settlement. HLH has consistently supported work on recovery and rehabilitation for brain injuries across our decades of service in Louisville.
One of our HLH partners is a member of the Brain Injury Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to research and aid to the victims of brain injuries. This organization of doctors, lawyers and other professionals aims to improve the lives of people who have suffered brain injuries.
For people with brain injuries, brain faculties and the patient’s ability to process information and make sound decisions can be seriously damaged. Some of these injuries are suffered in motor vehicle accidents, construction or railroad work.
No matter how a brain injury was suffered, however, many people struggle to find the money to obtain all of the rehabilitation services that may be necessary to make as full a recovery as possible.
It is definitely a concern, then, when insurance companies are reluctant or even refuse outright to pay for specialized rehabilitation that could greatly benefit someone with a traumatic brain injury. Sometimes, this is because insurance companies are overly stringent about insisting on physical disabilities to go along with mental impairments. That is a highly questionable stance for insurers to be taking, given the emerging research on the long-term effects of traumatic brain injury.
