Treatments commonly provided on a lien in California

  • Epidural steroid injections and nerve blocks for neck, back and radiating pain after a crash.
  • Facet injections and radiofrequency ablation when joint pain in the spine persists.
  • Medication management and referrals for imaging or surgery consults when needed.

In California, these bills are usually paid from the settlement under a signed lien; the client can still owe them if the case is lost, so read the terms.

Choosing a pain doctor in Encino

  • Check the license with the Medical Board of California. Physicians can also be looked up on DocInfo.org.
  • Ask whether the doctor is board certified in pain medicine (through anesthesiology, PM&R or neurology).
  • Ask which procedures are done in the office and which at a surgery center, and who reads your imaging.
  • Bring a list of medicines, prior imaging (MRI, X-ray) and the dates your pain started or changed.
  • In California, prescribers check the CURES database before prescribing controlled pain medicines, so tell the doctor about every prescription you take.
