Insurance policy specifics

Knowing the specifics of a insurance policy aids in choosing appropriate coverage for your vehicles. Insurance terms can be ambiguous and reading a policy is terribly boring. Below you’ll find typical coverages available from insurance companies.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance provide coverage for short-term medical expenses for prosthetic devices, EMT expenses, doctor visits and dental work. They are often used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. Coverage applies to you and your occupants and also covers any family member struck as a pedestrian. PIP is not available in all states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Comprehensive coverage

This coverage pays for damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You need to pay your deductible first and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims such as falling objects, theft, damage from flooding and hail damage. The highest amount you’ll receive from a claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Auto collision coverage

Collision insurance pays for damage to your Jetta SportWagen resulting from colliding with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision can pay for things like backing into a parked car, damaging your car on a curb and sustaining damage from a pot hole. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It’s also possible to raise the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage gives you protection when the “other guys” either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. It can pay for hospital bills for your injuries as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Because many people only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family.

Liability coverage

Liability insurance provides protection from damage that occurs to other people or property that is your fault. It protects you against other people’s claims. Liability doesn’t cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You might see limits of 25/50/25 which stand for a limit of $25,000 per injured person, a limit of $50,000 in injury protection per accident, and property damage coverage for $25,000.

Liability insurance covers things like medical expenses, repair bills for other people’s vehicles and bail bonds. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but buy as large an amount as possible.
