Best Answer

Many health insurance companies offer what is called "Pay and Chase". Meaning, your health insurance company will pay your hospital claims and chase the automotive insurance for the rest of the money. It is possible that you may have this type of plan. If that is not a possibility to you, you could entertain the possibility of legal action. It might be far less costly and stressful to contact your insurance company first.
