INSURANCE
When people are injured because
someone else was “at fault” the Person or facility At fault will
be responsible for property or personal injury. They will also
be responsible for any medical expenses incurred to evaluate and
treat the injured party. The at fault person’s liability
insurance will ultimately pay for the expenses incurred by the
injured party. In the vast majority of cases, the insurance
reaches a negotiated settlement with the injured party or their
legal representative. The settlement usually includes payment
for pain and suffering and may include payment for lost wages if
the injury.
If the person at fault does not have
insurance, your own insurance policy may have under-insured or
uninsured coverage. Your automobile policy may also have
personal injury coverage (also known as medical payment or
med-pay coverage).
The
professional staff at ACTC can help you determine your coverage
and, if necessary can refer you to legal counsel who will also
help you without requiring payment until you settle your claim.
