More than one payer
Primary and secondary coverage, policy holders and claim numbers are stored on the case, not buried in notes.
PIP & auto accident billing
PIP billing software built around the accident case
Personal Injury Protection claims follow the accident, not the visit. Injury Books keeps the auto insurer, claim number, adjuster, attorney, visits, charges and payments for each accident in one case file, so nothing slips between payers.
Why PIP billing is different
General practice software was not built for accident cases
In a no-fault auto claim, the patient's own auto policy pays first, other coverage may follow, and an attorney is often involved. Tracking that in a system designed for routine office visits means spreadsheets and sticky notes.
An attorney on the case
Link the law firm to the case, write letters, print labels and report patients by attorney.
Balances paid over months
Partial payments are normal. The case shows billed, collected and still owed, and follow-ups remind you to chase the rest.

Generate the CMS-1500. Print or download the PDF; the draft is saved to the case.

PIP billing questions
PIP billing, answered
What is PIP billing?
Personal Injury Protection (PIP) is the part of an auto insurance policy that pays medical costs after a crash, regardless of who caused it, in states with no-fault rules. PIP billing means sending the treating clinic's charges to that auto insurer under the patient's claim number, then tracking payments and any remaining balance.
Which claim form does Injury Books produce?
Injury Books generates the CMS-1500 (also called the HCFA) used by doctors, chiropractors and therapists, as a print-ready PDF saved to the case. Electronic clearinghouse submission is not available yet.
Can one patient have more than one accident case?
Yes. Each accident is its own case with its own insurer, claim number, attorney, visits, charges and balance.
Does it track secondary insurance?
Yes. Each case stores primary and secondary carriers with their policy, claim number, policy holder and assignment of benefits.
