Medical Payments
Medical payments coverage pays for medical and dental treatment, hospitalization, professional nursing services, prostheses, and funeral expenses if a covered driver and/or accompanying passengers are injured while in an insured vehicle, regardless of who is at fault in the accident.
Medical payments may also cover policyholders and their family members when they're injured while riding in someone else's car or if a car hits them while on foot or bicycling.
If you and your regular passengers already have health insurance that covers similar expenses, medical payments coverage may be unnecessary. Check your health insurance policy for details.
