Connecticut is an at-fault state, which means the driver responsible for the crash is ultimately liable for the damages they caused, including medical expenses. However, that liability is paid out through an insurance claim or lawsuit, which takes time. In the meantime, several sources may cover costs as treatment is ongoing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A rider&#8217;s own health insurance is typically the first line of payment for immediate medical care. If the motorcyclist carries medical payments coverage, commonly called MedPay, on their own motorcycle insurance policy, that can also be used to cover treatment costs regardless of fault, often without a deductible. MedPay is optional in Connecticut but can make a significant difference in bridging the gap between when care is received and when a liability settlement is reached.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Once fault is established, the at-fault driver&#8217;s bodily injury liability insurance becomes the primary source of recovery for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. If that driver was underinsured or carried insufficient coverage for the extent of the injuries, the injured rider may be able to turn to their own underinsured motorist coverage to make up the difference.
