There are two issues implicated in the question. First, property insurance does not generally cover pre-existing damage (that is, damage that was incurred prior to the inception of coverage). Thus is largely because no premium was paid to the insurer for taking on that risk.
The second issue is that of late notice. Most insurance policies contain a provision requiring the insured to report the occurrence "as soon as practicable" after the occurrence. They reserve the right to deny the claim for late notice if it can be shown that its rights have been prejudiced by the delay.
If it is a liability claim, the prejudice may arise from the inability to investigate, interview witnesses, etc. If it is a property claim, the prejudice may arise from the fact that the delay resulted in the exacerbation of damages, or prejudice to subrogation rights.

Is insurance company still liable for medical payments even you no longer carry that insurance?
The insurance should cover an accident while it was in force. If you had insurance 2 months ago and the accident happened 2 months ago, coverages should apply. If the accident happened today and the coverage stopped 2 months ago, there should not be coverage.

What happens if you are in a car accident your insurance ran out two weeks ago and your not the primary insurance policy holder on the car?
The driver of the at-fault car is responsible for paying for the damage they cause to others in an auto accident. Having insurance transfers this risk from the driver to the insurance company. If you are found at-fault and do not have insurance you will be responsible for paying out of your own pocket for the damage you caused. If you do not have the money in the bank, or the assets to sell, be prepared to have future wages garnished. If this happens you may want to consult a bankruptcy attorney.

Is there an insurance company that a pest control company can use to cover termite damage on their contracts?
AnswerI have not heard of any such company, because the liability would be far too high. But it could very well exist, but I have been in the business for 10 years now and have never heard of such a thing. Normally it is the pest company that did the termite treatment that handles any repairs that arise.YES, BB&T in Ga. created such a category several years ago. they broker the insurance to a company called FFVA Mutual. You can also find the nearest insurance provider at any of your local association's.

Can you pay out of pocket to repair damage from an accident as opposed to going through your insurance company?
Yes. It's unusual, but not illegal. I did this a couple of years ago, to keep my insurance payments down. Sometimes bodyshops and such are set up just to deal with insurance claims, so you will need to explain that you are paying out of your own pocket (usually by bank check) but they were pretty friendly about it.
