Q
Can I still bring a claim if my medical bills were paid by health insurance?

A
Yes. Texas recognizes the collateral source rule which says you can indeed recover for you medical bills even though the bills were paid by PIP (Personal Injury Protection), by health insurance or by worker's compensation insurance. The insurance company will probably assert a subrogation right to get reimbursed for a portion of the amount that they paid out. This subrogation concept can be confusing and is routinely handled by the Anderson Law Firm on behalf or our clients. Click here for information on Medical Liens and Subrogation.
