the 'at fault' party's insurance would be liable for the pain and suffering, the policy of the vehicle you are in if they have med pay (or manditory p.i.p in some states) will cover med bills as well....
Are you at fault for an accident caused by a medical condition?

Can the medical bills of someone injured on your property be covered by homeowners insurance?
They could be in some cases depending on how and why they were injured and what the relationship and residence status is to he named insured. Your homeowners medical coverage is specific to the named insured(s). Generally this is the home owner and resident family members. If someone else was injured on your property due to the insureds direct actions or through the insureds negligence for which you could be held liable then such an injury would be covered under the liability portion of your homeowners insurance policy. Bear in mind though that a homeowner is not automatically liable for an injury on the property simply because you own it. The injury would first have to be demonstrated as the fault of the insured, otherwise the homeowner is not liable.
Does the other insurance company have to pay for all medical bills if the accident was their client's fault?
Depends on what state you are in and what your state's laws are. If you're in a no fault state, your insurance will pay for all of your medical bills no matter who is at fault.

The at fault drivers auto insurance policy would pay for medical bills up to the policy limits for which that insured driver is liable. If there is no insurance then there is no coverage. If no one has Auto Insurance to cover you, hopefully you have a major Medical Insurance Policy in place. Major medical will cover your medical expenses even from a car accident.
When in an accident and not at fault. Can the other party get away with not paying a claim saying it was caused by a medical condition?
NO, If they were at fault then they were at fault and are liable for the damages and injuries they caused. If a medical condition was a contributory cause of the accident, that has no effect on their legal liability.
Who pays the medical bills for passengers who are involved in an accident where the at fault party is uninsured and you don't have uninsured motori?
Each person is responsible for their own medical expenses. Each injured person can bring suit against the person who is at fault even though they did not have insurance. They are still the responsible party whether or not they had insurance. Good Luck though.

What happens if you are at fault in a car accident?
If you haven't filed a claim with your insurance company, that's the first step. The insurance company will contact the other party and do an assessment of their damages and pay for them. If the other party is injured, then they will take care of the medical bills. If you have first party coverages (collision), they will also assess your damages and pay for your repairs. If you are injured and have first party medical coverage (PIP or med-pay), your medical bills will also be covered, up to a certain dollar amount.
