Get Full Compensation for Your Medical Equipment Needs After an Injury

Insurance companies routinely undervalue or ignore medical equipment costs. Our experienced team ensures wheelchairs, home modifications, and specialized devices are properly valued in your claim.

Medical Equipment Claims

When a serious injury occurs, medical equipment often becomes essential for recovery and daily living. From wheelchairs and mobility devices to specialized beds, ventilators, and home modification equipment, the costs can be substantial—and they’re often overlooked in injury settlements.

At BV Law Group, APLC, we ensure that the full value of your medical equipment needs is included in your claim, so you can focus on healing rather than financial stress.

Why Medical Equipment Claims Matter

Many injured individuals require specialized medical equipment for months or even years following their accident. Whether it’s a spinal cord injury requiring a wheelchair, a traumatic brain injury necessitating in-home care equipment, or orthopedic injuries requiring mobility aids, these devices represent real costs that should be compensated.

Unfortunately, insurance companies often underestimate or overlook these expenses entirely.

Medical equipment claims encompass far more than just the initial purchase price. They include rental costs, maintenance, replacement due to wear and damage, upgrades as your condition changes, and installation expenses.

When calculated properly, these costs can add substantially to your total recovery—money that belongs to you.

Types of Medical Equipment We Include in Claims

Our team has extensive experience documenting and valuing all categories of medical equipment:

  • Mobility Devices: Wheelchairs, walkers, canes, crutches, scooters, and specialized transportation equipment
  • Home Care Equipment: Hospital beds, lift chairs, patient lifts, and bathroom safety equipment
  • Respiratory Equipment: Ventilators, oxygen concentrators, CPAP machines, and nebulizers
  • Monitoring Devices: Blood pressure monitors, glucose monitors, pulse oximeters, and cardiac monitoring equipment

Our Process for Medical Equipment Claims

We take a comprehensive approach to ensure every piece of medical equipment—current and future—is properly valued in your claim.

  1. Documentation and Assessment: We work with your medical providers to document all equipment you currently use and any devices your doctors recommend for your condition. This creates a detailed medical record supporting the necessity of each item.
  2. Cost Analysis: Our team researches current market pricing for all equipment, including purchase prices, rental costs, and maintenance fees. We distinguish between one-time purchases and ongoing expenses.
  3. Future Needs Projection: For serious injuries, we calculate lifetime equipment needs based on your condition and medical prognosis. This ensures you’re compensated for devices you’ll need years down the road, not just what you need today.
  4. Negotiation and Recovery: We present detailed equipment valuations to insurance companies and at trial if necessary, demonstrating the legitimate medical necessity and costs involved. Our aggressive representation ensures these claims aren’t minimized or dismissed.
