The gas crisis, the bad economy and other factors, are playing an important part of your injury settlement with the insurance companies. Years ago, when insurance companies offered their clients Personal Injury Protection (PIP) most of them would pay their clients if they ever got involved in an accident, if they had PIP coverage. That is no longer the case. Some insurance companies now have independent third party auditors that would, in most cases, challenge the validity of medical bills, and wage losses of the clients. Therefore minimizing the recovery of your claim.
This is particularly true for major insurance companies. As businesses, insurance companies, just like any others, must keep up with the reality of inflation, economy and "the bottom line." Gas prices must be one of the reasons why, insurance companies now must try to keep most of the profits for themselves, and not pay on no-fault insurance claims, such as PIP.
PIP coverage varies depending on the State and policy. In most cases, the PIP could range from $2,500 to $10,000, depending on the type of coverage. Once an insured is injured in an accident, if they have PIP coverage, it should cover most of the medical bills and the loss wages, assuming that the insurance company pays the full policy. This is independent on who is at fault. That is why is called, no-fault insurance.
Very few insurance companies are paying on their PIP policies the full price. They would question every aspect of a bill, in order to keep more profits. Good hands policy has now become boxing gloves policy, even for no-fault insurance claims. The key operative word is "reasonableness" of the medical bills.
One of the major insurance companies that is doing this drastic change in policy is USAA. They have opted to send every PIP claim to independent, or so they say, third party auditors that would evaluate every claim. The auditors would in tern, dictate the price of the medical services offered, price the reasonableness of the services provided, and advise the insurance on how much to pay on the claim. All of this again, in order to keep more profits. It must be that the economy is affecting them as well.
