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.

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 South Gate

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.
