After a crash
Get checked even when pain feels minor at first
Auto accident symptoms can show up right away or build over the next several hours or days. A same-day medical evaluation helps identify injuries, document symptoms, and create a practical care plan before pain becomes harder to manage.
- Neck pain, whiplash symptoms, and reduced range of motion.
- Back pain, shoulder pain, hip pain, and muscle strains.
- Headache, dizziness, nausea, or possible concussion symptoms.
- Sprains, bruising, minor cuts, swelling, and joint pain.
- Possible fractures or injury patterns that may need X-ray.
Choose the ER for severe symptoms
Call 911 or go to the emergency room for chest pain, severe trouble breathing, weakness on one side, loss of consciousness, severe head injury, major trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, or worsening neurological symptoms.

Utah PIP basics
How PIP can help after a Utah auto accident
Utah uses personal injury protection, often called PIP, as part of motor vehicle insurance. In plain terms, PIP is designed to help pay for certain accident-related medical care and related benefits under the policy, regardless of who was at fault. Coverage depends on the policy, claim status, and insurer requirements.
Utah Code Section 31A-22-307 describes PIP benefits that include coverage of not less than $3,000 per person for necessary medical services and related categories such as surgical services, X-ray services, rehabilitation services, ambulance services, hospital services, and nursing services.
Utah Code Section 31A-22-309 also describes legal thresholds for certain general-damages claims after an automobile accident, including death, dismemberment, permanent disability or impairment, permanent disfigurement, bone fracture, or medical expenses over $3,000. This page is general patient education, not legal advice.
What to bring
- Photo ID and health insurance card, if available.
- Auto insurance card or policy information.
- Claim number and adjuster contact, if a claim is open.
- Date of accident and basic crash details.
- Police report number, if available.
