It’s not one size fits all

  • What are the financial responsibility laws in my state?
  • Do I have coverage if my license is suspended?

  • Does my medical payments coverage pay my health insurance deductible?

Insurance coverage breakdown

Learning about specific coverages of insurance helps when choosing which coverages you need at the best deductibles and correct limits. Policy terminology can be confusing and coverage can change by endorsement. Below you’ll find the usual coverages found on most insurance policies.

Comprehensive insurance

Comprehensive insurance coverage will pay to fix damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You need to pay your deductible first then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive coverage pays for claims such as hitting a deer, damage from flooding and theft. The most a insurance company will pay at claim time is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Auto collision coverage

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage pays for claims like rolling your car, colliding with a tree, sustaining damage from a pot hole and driving through your garage door. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so you might think about dropping it from older vehicles. Another option is to bump up the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Liability car insurance

This coverage provides protection from injuries or damage you cause to people or other property in an accident. It protects you against other people’s claims. Liability doesn’t cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

It consists of three limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. As an example, you may have values of 50/100/50 that translate to a limit of $50,000 per injured person, a limit of $100,000 in injury protection per accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability coverage protects against claims such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, repair bills for other people’s vehicles, funeral expenses and medical services. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

This coverage provides protection from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered losses include hospital bills for your injuries as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Because many people carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP)

Med pay and PIP coverage kick in for immediate expenses like dental work, surgery, hospital visits, prosthetic devices and doctor visits. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. They cover both the driver and occupants and will also cover if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP coverage is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
