Michigan car insurance fee for medical coverage will drop

LANSING, Mich. โ€“ Michigan drivers who want unlimited personal injury protection benefits will pay $86 per vehicle starting next summer, down from $100 currently. The fee was mandatory for decades but became optional beginning in July under a change in state law. The Michigan Catastrophic Claims Association, a state-created nonprofit entity that reimburses auto insurers for medical claims surpassing $580,000, announced the 14% fee reduction Wednesday. Motorists who forego personal protection benefits entirely and those who choose less coverage do not have to pay the assessment. The insurance industry said the reduced fee underscores the need to keep the law, which โ€” beginning next July โ€” will also set a fee schedule for care covered by auto insurers.

Rep. Bellino: A year in review

Rep. Joe Bellino is a Republican from Monroe. Our changes give drivers some choice in personal injury protection coverage, eliminating what amounted to an unfair and mandatory tax on drivers. For the drivers who choose lower coverage limits under Michigans revised no-fault insurance law, they will avoid the fee altogether. This plan, which passed the House and awaits Senate approval, will help people become successful members of society. Please feel free to reach out to my office with any questions, ideas or concerns at 517-373-1530 or JosephBellino@house.mi.gov.
