PIP questions should start with the injured person’s eligibility, the proper insurer, and the particular benefit. A policy’s medical limit does not provide one answer for every accident-related loss.

Multipliers and daily-rate illustrations can organize an argument about pain and suffering, but they do not determine a Michigan injury settlement or bind a jury. Their apparent precision can hide the facts and legal issues that matter most.

After purchasing auto insurance, changes in health coverage, household members, drivers, or vehicle use can create new questions. Keep the policy current and obtain written answers before assuming the original election still works for the changed circumstances.
