OK...what exactly do you mean, and also- this should have started on a new thread...

Can you clarify?

Hi InsTeacher,

I believe the real question is put up there in the subject:
He'd simply like to know whether its possible for him to sue the car insurance co. at this juncture!
Any volunteers?

Dear..I'm sorry..but you can't sue the insurance co. unless you have enough reasons to show that they or their negligence was at-fault. I think you need to be a lil more descriptive over here. Blasphemy_07

Emergency room? Gosh..I'm sorry!! What happened that you ended up there? Whatever the reason ( to go to the Emergency Room) what did your vehicle insurance have to do with the 'misfortune'?

You CAN sue anyone you want to...Do they owe payment of the ER bill? Maybe...why were you there was the accident your fault? Were you a passenger in another vehicle owned and ins. by someone else? Was another vehicle at fault? If your vehicle and your ins...do you have med pay or pip? Did an uninsured driver cause the accident? It all depends on the circumstances of the accident, and the coverages your policy has...If you want give us A LOT more information including your state and coverages, and I'm sure we will be able to help answer your question.

Do you feel it was somehow the fault of your car insurance company that you did not have health insurance?

If you went to the emergency room as a result of an auto accident usually health insurance won't pay until any auto coverage available for the injuries is exhausted anyway.

Regardless of the particulars of the accident why would you sue your car insurance company? What you do is file a claim. That's why we buy insurance, so we don't have to sue anyone to be indemnified.

If the emergency room visit was not the result of an auto accident then your question makes about as much sense as the following:

I wrecked my car and the damages are $8500.00, I didn't have collision coverage, can I sue my health insurance company?

Did I read the FIRST post ( of this thread) incorrectly? Din't the post say they did NOT have Medical Insurance? How could you sue a 'health insurance company", when you did NOT have Health Insurance in the first place? LORI....how long did it take you to get ALL of the coffee out of your keyboard!? LOL Surprised

Well...i was reading ( agin) the above thread. When someone gets car insurance, don't they have to SAY that they want 'collision coverage?' Isn't this the 'full coverage' part ( lack of a better word) of car insurance? I know if you have 'Liability', it doesn't include collision.
