Your cousin should contact an experinced personal injury attorney for assistance. Most attorneys do not charge for an initial consultation. Your question does not indicate who was at fault in the accident. Assuimng that there is a police report connected with the accident that report should indicate the insurance company for the at-fault person. Your cousin's attorney will be able to then speak with the insurance company to try and arrange compensation for your cousin, and to advise your cousin as to how to obtain medical treatment.
Please feel free to call or email if you have further questions.
