Insurance coverage breakdown

Learning about specific coverages of your insurance policy can be of help when determining which coverages you need for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be ambiguous and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.

Comprehensive coverages

This coverage covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for claims such as a broken windshield, fire damage, hail damage, a tree branch falling on your vehicle and theft. The maximum amount a insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider dropping full coverage.

Collision coverage

Collision coverage pays for damage to your Ram Van caused by collision with another car or object. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage pays for claims such as sideswiping another vehicle, colliding with another moving vehicle, backing into a parked car, hitting a mailbox and colliding with a tree. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are older. Another option is to increase the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Coverage for medical payments

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage pay for bills for things like prosthetic devices, EMT expenses, X-ray expenses, funeral costs and chiropractic care. The coverages can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover both the driver and occupants and also covers being hit by a car walking across the street. Personal Injury Protection is only offered in select states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Uninsured and underinsured coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle from other motorists when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea. Most of the time your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.

Liability insurance

This coverage will cover damage that occurs to other people or property. It protects you against claims from other people. It does not cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You might see values of 50/100/50 which stand for $50,000 bodily injury coverage, a total of $100,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Alternatively, you may have one number which is a combined single limit which provides one coverage limit with no separate limits for injury or property damage.

Liability coverage protects against things like attorney fees, repair costs for stationary objects, legal defense fees and bail bonds. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but buy as much as you can afford.
