Docs, tell me about intracranial hemorrhages

Bumped my head last Tuesday, been getting increased pain and pressure. I was also taking motrin. Went to my doctor today and he ordered a CT scan of my brain and thinks it might be an ICH. The problem/my complaint is the insurance approval process. The place he ordered the CT has to get an authorization, even though he marked it "stat" and head trauma is a serious thing. If it's so damn serious why couldn't they easily get an authorization. Why do they not have an office open to support west-coast hours?! It's ridiculous. My doctor and the imaging place both say to go to the ER if it's not any better by tomorrow. They'll rush the CT scan and give me info quickly, it just won't be cheap.

Rant aside... What am I looking at here? WebMD pretty much tells me a fart to a headache means cancer, most everything else is just explaining what an ICH is. Thanks.
