In some cases where there is no immediate method to pay medical bills as they are incurred, some doctors, hospitals, and other medical facilities will wait to be paid for their services if and when the case is finally resolved by way of settlement, court award or verdict. It is important to let medical providers know early in the process if you have no insurance or financial means to pay medical bills as they are incurred. You are ultimately responsible to pay any outstanding medical bills not covered by insurance.
