NOTICE OF DOCTOR’S LIEN- For Personal Injury Patients

Patient: Date of Accident:

I do hereby authorize Yin-Jia (Rose) Gong, MD to furnish you, my attorney, with a full report of his examination diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, etc., of myself in regard to the accident in which I was involved.

I hereby authorize and direct you, my attorney, to pay directly to said doctor such sums as may be due and owing her for medical service rendered me both by reason of this accident and by reason of any other bills that are due her office and to withhold such sums from any settlement, judgment or verdict as may be necessary to adequately protect and fully compensate said doctor. And I hereby further give a lien on my case to said doctor against any and all proceeds of my settlement, judgment or verdict which may be paid to you, my attorney, or myself, as the result of the injuries for which I have been treated or injuries in connection therewith.

I fully understand that I am directly and fully responsible to said doctor for all medical bills submitted by her for service rendered me and that this agreement is made solely for said doctor’s additional protection and in consideration of her awaiting payment. And I further understand that such payment is not contingent on any settlement, judgment or verdict by which I may eventually recover said fee.

I agree to promptly notify said doctor of any change or addition of attorneys used by me in connection with this accident, and I instruct my attorney to do the same and to promptly deliver a copy of this lien to any such substituted or added attorneys.

Please acknowledge this letter by signing below and returning to the doctor’s office. I have been advised that if my attorney does not want to cooperate in protecting the doctor’s interest, the doctor will not await payment but may declare the entire balance due and payable.
