Florida PIP Care Within Your 14-Day Window

Yes. This is one of the most common — and costly — mistakes accident victims make. Many post-accident injuries don't show symptoms for days or even weeks. Whiplash, disc damage, and nerve compression can be silent at first, and by the time the pain finally appears, scar tissue has often started forming. Plus, if you wait more than 14 days to seek care, Florida law cuts off your PIP benefits. The smart move is a thorough evaluation within the first week.

Florida's no-fault insurance law (PIP) gives you up to $10,000 in medical coverage after an accident, regardless of who caused it. The catch: you must seek medical care within 14 days, and the care must be provided by a qualifying provider. Chiropractors at The Roots Health Centers qualify. We handle the insurance paperwork and billing directly so you don't have to.

Yes. We regularly coordinate with personal injury attorneys to provide records, narratives, and reports for active cases. If you don't have an attorney and are wondering whether you need one, we can recommend several reputable local firms that specialize in Florida auto accident cases.

It depends on the severity of your injuries. Mild whiplash might resolve in 4–6 weeks of consistent care. More serious disc or nerve injuries can take 3–6 months or longer. We will outline a specific plan after your evaluation and check progress along the way. The most important thing is to start early — accident injuries are far easier to address before scar tissue and chronic compensation patterns set in.

If you're within your 14-day PIP window, your auto insurance will typically cover most or all of your care up to your $10,000 PIP limit. We verify your benefits before your first visit and explain exactly what's covered. For care beyond PIP, we work with health insurance and offer affordable payment plans.
