Or are they entitled to full fees regardless of where the payments come from?	sreed New member Joined: 22 Jul 2009 Posts: 1 1.31 Dollars($)

I was in an accident a couple years ago and was worried about the mounting medical bills. I was told not to worry about it because only a percentage is paid. My auto med benefits did go a long way and I had extensive injuries. An expert here can probaly give you a more detailed answer but this is what I was told.	fireyone Senior member Joined: 07 Jan 2008 Posts: 1993 2.31 Dollars($)

(As long as it was a covered service.) _________________ Can I say I’m working if I stare blankly at my computer all day?
