This is unclear. If you're asking if your medical insurance will pay for someone else's treatment... no. If you're asking if your liability insurance will cover your own personal injuries... probably not, though that's less certain, and it might apply in some cases like a "no-fault" auto accident.

Not usually, unless it is for the treatment of some serious and lengthy medical injury for which the auto insurance is insufficient.


Can you claim bodily injury from your insurance for a car accident in which you were found at fault?

If you had medical coverage, you can.You cannot claim bodily injury against your own policy for yourself because you cannot be liable to yourself. Bodily injury coverage falls under the liability portion of your policy, for injury to others caused by you or the driver of your vehicle. You must carry PIP or MEDPAY for your own injuries.In the UK - the law is based on fault. Namely the driver at fault pays for the injury and vehicle damage to the innocent road user. Motor insurance is compulsory as this pays the liability of the driver at fault. So you cannot claim for bodily injury from your own insurance as you would be claiming against yourself - but if your motor policy was comprehensive you can claim from your own insurer for vehicle damage - subject to an excess. See the related link entitled "car driver injury claims" for a full explanation as to when a car driver can claim and when a car driver is considered liable.

Can you collect bodily liability on your own car insurance?

No. Liability insurance is, by its nature, third-party insurance. That means that proceeds are paid to the person(s) that are hurt as a result of your negligence. It does, however, indemnify you for your carelessness up to the amount of coverage that you purchased. If sued for the collision by someone claiming bodily injury, the insurer will also provide a defense attorney. Somewhat analogous to bodily injury coverage is uninsured motorist coverage. It is a form of first party coverage, meaning that you buy it for yourself. If you are hurt by the negligence of another driver, and that person does not have bodily injury liability insurance, you may have a claim for damages under your uninsured motorist coverage.
