Learning about specific coverages of insurance helps when choosing the right coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. The terms used in a policy can be ambiguous and reading a policy is terribly boring. Listed below are the usual coverages found on most insurance policies.
Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage reimburse you for immediate expenses such as rehabilitation expenses, surgery, nursing services and X-ray expenses. They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. It covers you and your occupants and also covers being hit by a car walking across the street. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available and may carry a deductible
This protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when the “other guys” do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered losses include medical payments for you and your occupants as well as damage to your 2000 Chevy Astro.
Since many drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. So UM/UIM coverage is very important. Frequently the UM/UIM limits are set the same as your liablity limits.
This pays for damage to your Astro caused by collision with another car or object. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in.
Collision coverage protects against claims such as colliding with a tree, driving through your garage door, rolling your car, hitting a mailbox and crashing into a ditch. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to increase the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.
Liability coverage provides protection from damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property by causing an accident. It protects YOU from claims by other people. It does not cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.
Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. You commonly see policy limits of 100/300/100 that means you have $100,000 bodily injury coverage, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and a limit of $100,000 paid for damaged property. Some companies may use a combined single limit or CSL which limits claims to one amount rather than limiting it on a per person basis.
Liability can pay for things such as emergency aid, structural damage and legal defense fees. How much liability coverage do you need? That is a personal decision, but consider buying as much as you can afford.
Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. A deductible will apply then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive can pay for claims like damage from a tornado or hurricane, hitting a deer, fire damage and damage from getting keyed. The maximum amount your insurance company will pay is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
