Best Answer

Med Pay coverage pays medical expenses no matter who is At Fault in the accident. If you do not have health insurance or if anyone who rides in your car may not have health insurance this coverage will help. Med Pay is usually not very expensive and pays for emergency room charges or more depending on what limits you choose.

Who pays for your injury if you were injured in someone else's car but have your own auto insurance as well?

In an auto accident in California do you bill your auto insurance as the primary insurance or your health insurance?

If you have both medical insurance and auto insurance, the primary company billed will depend on the situation. If your injuries and medical costs were caused by an auto accident and you carry Medical Payments coverage, you will bill your auto insurance provider. If you do not carry Med Pay insurance coverage, as it is optional in the state of California, the circumstances will depend on who is deemed at fault for the accident. If the other party is at fault, you will bill their insurance company and will advise your claims adjuster as well. If you are deemed at fault and do not carry Med Pay, the only insurance you can bill is your medical insurance provider. Be sure your medical insurance provider does not exclude injuries caused in an automobile accident before approving chiropractic care.

Can an auto insurance carrier designate their med payments coverage secondary to any other health insurance in CA as a result of an auto loss?

This is sticky, not sure what you mean by 'designate' secondary. Assume you are saying your health insurance has to pay first and med pay picks up what's left? Yes, in some states that is the practice/allowed. Some states allow ''double dipping'' meaning you can collect from both. Contact the Dept. of Insurance for your state, (should be an 800 number) they will be able to tell you. Also look in your policy it will also tell you for sure.
