Car Accidents in Florida

Across Florida, motor vehicle collisions remain one of the leading causes of injury-related hospital visits each year. The state reported over 394,000 accidents in 2023 alone, with more than 250,000 individuals sustaining some level of injury. The growing number of crashes on both urban and rural roadways highlights the importance of taking legal action when needed—and knowing what to expect after an accident.

One of the most difficult aspects of an accident is dealing with the medical side of recovery. Here’s why medical challenges after a crash matter:

  • Delayed Symptoms and Hidden Injuries: Not all injuries are immediately noticeable. Internal bleeding, concussions, or soft tissue damage may only appear hours or days after a crash. It’s critical to get medical care right away, even if symptoms seem minor at first, to rule out more serious complications.
  • Emergency Room Visits and Hospital Stays: After a crash, victims may face overnight hospitalizations, emergency procedures, or even surgery. These can be financially draining without sufficient insurance coverage—and often add significant emotional stress on top of physical trauma.
  • Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation: Recovery doesn’t end when you leave the hospital. Ongoing physical therapy is often necessary, especially for injuries involving the spine, joints, or muscles. These treatments can stretch for months and greatly impact your day-to-day life and ability to return to work.
  • Out-of-Pocket Medical Costs: Even with insurance, crash victims frequently encounter co-pays, medication costs, and uncovered treatments. These out-of-pocket expenses can add up quickly and become a financial burden—especially when paired with missed work or job changes due to injury.
  • Mental Health Effects: Anxiety, flashbacks, and other forms of emotional trauma are common after serious crashes. Counseling and support groups can be an important part of healing, yet these services may not be readily available or covered by insurance.
