Car Insurance : The Other Side of Auto No-Fault

Michigan citizens need affordable auto insurance that offers the needed medical coverage should they suffer a devastating injury.
Michigan's current auto no-fault coverage was introduced in 1972 and guarantees medical coverage for individuals requiring care as a result of a car accident. Now, some involved in the insurance industry want to secure limits on medical benefits by introducing medical coverage "caps," claiming they will curtail the rising insurance premiums.

Hope Network Rehab-ilitation Services believes insurance needs to be affordable to
Michigan citizens. We also believe medical benefits are not the reason for Michigan's high insurance premiums. Michigan's auto insurances are reimbursed by the Michigan
Catastrophic Claims Association for medical care costs in excess of $440,000 per individual injured.

This is another reason we need a single payer system for health care. It would remove health care costs from auto insurance, as well as homeowners, business owners etc. To help sell it to Republicans, it can be pointed out that a single payer system would also reduce the number of personal injury lawsuits since you wouldn't need to sue following a minor injury.
