How Accurate Are Body Claim Injury Calculators?

A bodily injury calculator is essentially an equation that insurance companies use to determine the value of your case. The details of your case become values in the equation, and the insurance company will use this value as the amount they think you deserve for your injuries. For example, if you’ve sustained a concussion in your accident, an insurance company could equate that injury to $100,000 worth of compensation.

Some online services offer their own bodily injury calculators, but their results are merely estimates. While it does offer some insight into how the process works, the values they use don’t reflect those of insurance companies and won’t accurately mirror the compensation you could receive for your claim.

Despite their widespread use, bodily injury calculators are incredibly inaccurate. Each insurance company will appraise your injuries differently, which causes your payout to vary depending on which company you’re dealing with. The lack of consistency between claims causes the system to be unreliable and makes it difficult to trust offers from the insurance company.

Body injury calculators are especially weak when dealing with pain and suffering damages. The emotional aspects of a car accident are difficult to reduce down to a dollar figure, so insurance companies treat it as a multiplier against your case. Your suffering is assigned a number, usually on a scale of 1.5 to 5, which is multiplied against your expenses, For example, if your pain and suffering were given a 2, they would multiply the damage you’re entitled to recover for your medical bills by 2. This transforms your emotional suffering into something that’s dependent on other aspects of your case when it should be treated for what it is.

Bodily injuries are specific to the individual who’s sustained them, and generalizing physical damage can be problematic when it comes to compensating the injured party. Your injuries could affect you more harshly than someone else, and your compensation should reflect that.

By relying on a bodily injury calculator to determine your compensation, you’re allowing the insurance company to determine the extent of your suffering. The physical and financial damage you’ve sustained has caused you significant discomfort, and you should be compensated fairly for what you’ve experienced. By teaming up with a proficient attorney, you can prevent the insurance company from devaluing your case and fight for your full compensation.
