More details to this question:
From those funds do I have to pay the physical therapy clinic the full amount for their services or just my 20% deductible, or will the clinic collect its money from the insurance company. The adjuster didn't specified to me anything regarding paying my doctor or clinic with the funds from the check. Adjuster told me the money was a compensation for pain and suffering and I had to sign a release.

Questions like this are why you hire personal injury lawyers to help handle your case. Generally you owe all of the doctors whatever wasn't paid on thier bill balance. The problem you may also have is that if other sources paid like, med-pay, health insurance, medicaid or medicare, or anyone that has a "providers" or hospital lien, you have pay them too....
