If my health insurance already paid for my medical and hospital bills, may I recover from the person who caused my injury? Yes. Although typically, your health insurance will be entitled to be reimbursed for some or all of their payments, these bills are only part of what the law allows a jury victim to recover. Accordingly, a personal injury claim may be the only way to recover for damages such as disfigurement, pain and suffering, and the strain on a marriage an injury may cause.
