Answer:
A letter of protection is a request for a healthcare provider to treat an injured patient and defer payment until a settlement or judgment is reached. If the provider accepts this letter, they will receive payment from any settlement or judgment awarded. However, the patient remains responsible for the medical bills if the case does not result in a favorable outcome.
