What Is PIP & What Does It Cover?

PIP stands for “personal injury protection” and is a type of mandatory insurance coverage in Texas. PIP insurance covered the expenses incurred following an accident. The idea of PIP is that regardless of who is at fault for an accident your expenses will be covered. Unless you signed a paper opting out of PIP coverage when you purchased your auto insurance, you probably have at least $2,500 worth of coverage—hopefully more. PIP is a valuable part of your insurance because payment of benefits is not based on fault, so you do not have to wait for investigations, police reports, or court decisions to request your benefits.

Unlike health insurance which only covers medical bills, PIP insurance can make up for costs such as:

• Lost wages
• Rehabilitation
• Household services
• Child care
• Funeral expenses

How much of these expenses PIP covers depends on how much you carry. When paying for medical care, your PIP may not go very far, so it is important to explore every avenue for obtaining compensation. Our law firm can do this for you.

As your advocate, Jay Doyle will fully investigate your accident, negotiate for a fair settlement, and take your case to court if necessary.
