As far as I understand it,

That isn't a possible solution.

A claim isn't settled until after the vehicle, or whatever is fixed. Thus there is no set amount for the claim.

example:

Person A rear ends someone. A, goes to the insurance company and files a claim,

The insurance company sends an adjuster, the car gets fixed, and the amount owed is determined by the bill after the vehicle is fixed.

When a primary insurance pays more than the hospital charged does the patient get the refund?

Of course not. The hospital would issue a refund to the insurance company if they overpaid on a claim. Generally on a large claim, an audit is done at the end of the claim to check on such things. It is illegal for an insured to make money from overpayment from an insurance company or a combination of insurance companies. If you have more than one policy you cannot collect more that the amount of the loss from the combination of company payments. Be careful, you can get in trouble.


Can I accept property money damages from both my contractor's insurance co and my homeowners insurance?

No!! It is highly illegal for you to do this. When you make a claim on you home insurance for something that was the fault of your contractor you sign over all subjugation rights against this contractor to your insurance company. This means that if your home insurance pays any part of this claim you give them all your rights to go after the contractor, which they will do. They will go to the contractor and their insurance company to get reimbursed for any amount they paid plus costs. In most states it is considered insurance fraud for you to even try to collect damages from two places for the same claim.
