My accident date was April 7 , 2008. I was a pedestrian struck by a vehicle, while standing on the sidewalk. My catastrophic determination was reached in April, 2010. This was significant because I was close to exceeding my medical rehab limit.
My road to recovery has been rocky to this point. There are times the insurance company would appear not to be an ally in my recovery. At an insurance examination the physician informed me he was there to “get the truth”. As a result of my accident I was blind in my left eye and required surgery. They thought I was lying.
I’m here at FAIR out of concerns for others in the same or worse situation. I have concern for people in the early stages of recovery, who because of changes to rehabilitation limits, will have difficulty recovering. The trauma inflicted by the insurance industry, on victims of accidents that were no fault of their own, is shameful.
