Question

An insured had basic PIP coverage with no deductible. He had an accident that occurred January 2, 2018 and sought medical treatment within 14 days, but was not diagnosed as having an emergency medical condition. Medical bills totaled $3000. What will PIP pay?

Answer 1

PIP pay will pay $2400

Explanation:

given information:

total the medical bills = $3000

no deductible

according to the policy, the PIP coverage is less than 100%. customer has to pay 20% of the bills. Thus,

the percentage of PIP coverage = 100% - 20%

= 80%

PIP pay = (total bills - deductible) the percentage of PIP coverage

= ($3000 - 0) x 0.8

= $2400
