Michigan Knee and Hip Surgery Costs

The Detroit News today has an interesting article on the cost of knee and hip surgeries  and knee and hip replacements at various hospitals in the Metro-Detroit area.  For example, the charge for a hip or knee replacement costs approximately $28,500 at Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak, Michigan to $42,653 at Harper Hospital in Detroit, Michigan.

Many of our clients who are injured in Michigan car accidents, Michigan motorcycle accidents, Michigan slip and fall accidents, and other types of traumatic accidents require knee surgeries and hip replacements.  Many times, the medical provider or health insurance company attempt to get repaid the payments they made for the surgeries from the personal injury settlements.  In Michigan car accident and Michigan motorcycle accident cases, quite often the No-Fault Insurance company pays for the procedures.  It is important to note that these costs do not include the follow-up treatment and expensive rehabilitation that often follows the surgery.

Testimonials

The insurance company refused to pay my benefits. Mr. Buckfire filed a lawsuit against them and made them pay every penny that they owed... Every time I see my doctor, I thank her again for the referral to Buckfire & Buckfire.

Because of his efforts, we proved that the other driver was at fault and the driver's insurance company paid a significant settlement for our injury claims... Hiring his firm to represent my son and myself was the best decision I could have possibly made. Many thanks for the great work.

My husband died when a truck left the roadway and struck him. He was off the shoulder of the roadway helping another motorist pull his car out of a snow bank The work that they did helped me settle my Michigan wrongful death case for $1,600,000.00. Their knowledge of law was second to none and they hired the best experts to prove my case.
