We Choose an Insurance Policy and Make Monthly Payments Because We Expect to Be Protected in Case of an Accident. However, What If Your Own Insurance Company Won’t Pay For Injuries?
My Own Insurance Company Can't Deny Payment of Medical Bills.
Even though you have paid for the insurance coverage and purchased PIP benefits, your own insurance company can still deny payment of your medical bills.
This is because the insurance company hired their own doctor, known as a "peer review" doctor. Their doctor reviews your medical records given by your doctor to make sure it conforms to California standards and is "reasonable and necessary." Typically, this does not go in your favor and the insurance company may deny payment to your doctor for the treatment received.
In this case, a personal injury lawyer will sue the insurance company for violating the policy you purchased, violating the law, and showing bad faith. Unfortunately, this may be the only way to make your insurance company pay for your medical bills.
