What Is a Catastrophic Injury?
Catastrophic injuries are severe, life-changing injuries, often resulting in significant and permanent physical and/or cognitive disability.
Common examples of catastrophic injuries include:
- Amputations
- Serious fractures/broken bones
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Head and neck injuries
- Severe burns
- Spinal cord injuries
- Damage to internal organs
- Eye and face injuries
From chronic pain to lifelong disfigurement, these injuries have devastating consequences for victims. The cost of treating such injuries can be extreme, often amounting to hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars over the course of the injured party’s lifetime—and that doesn’t include the financial impact of being unable to work due to a new disability or the emotional toll of going through a traumatic event.
