Can Future Medical Expenses Be Part of a Motorcycle Accident Claim?

A motorcycle injury does not always end with the first medical bill. A fractured bone may require additional care, a back injury may lead to months of therapy, and some injuries can later call for surgery or other treatment.

In some cases, they can be considered if there is strong evidence supporting the need for future care and the likely cost. The answer is not automatic. Medical records, treatment plans, and the details of the injury can all play a role. Here is a closer look at both sides.
