How does uninsured motorist coverage and other state specific coverages work?
In Georgia, Medical Payments (MedPay) coverage is optional and helps pay for your injuries right after an accident - no matter who's at fault. Both uninsured motorist bodily injury and underinsured motorist bodily injury coverage are also optional. These two additional coverages protect you if the other driver has no insurance or not enough to cover your medical expenses.
If you are in an accident with an uninsured or underinsured motorist, any MedPay coverage you have will apply first. If that coverage plus the at-fault driver's liability coverage (if any) isn't sufficient to cover your medical expenses, then your uninsured motorist bodily injury or underinsured motorist bodily injury coverage kicks in (if added).
Adding MedPay, uninsured motorist bodily injury, and underinsured motorist bodily injury coverage can mean fewer out-of-pocket costs and more financial protection when you need it most.
Is Georgia a no-fault state for car insurance?
No, Georgia is a fault-based state. This means you have the right to file a claim with the at-fault driver's insurance company to cover medical bills and other damages.
