January 1, 2008 marks the first day of the reenactment of PIP in Florida.Personal Injury Protection (PIP) provides up to $10,000 in your auto policy to cover medical and other expenses resulting from an automobile accident for people specified in the policy, regardless of who is at fault for the accident. In response to fraudulent claims received by insurance companies regarding medical claims, PIP was originally set for sunset in October 2007 but Governor Charlie Crist reenacted the coverage effective 1/1/2008 requiring all drivers to carry minimum $10,000 in bodily injury limits and PIP. Policy holders without PIP after January 1 2008 may be subject to the suspension of their licenses and registration. Policy holders should receive a mandatory PIP reminder in the mail, but if not, contact Kevin Delaney at 352-242-0299 or kevin@4cornersbusinesscouncil.com to make sure that you have this valuable coverage.
