Some Information About Massachusetts PIP Benefits

Following your Massachusetts auto accident, you will be entitled to PIP benefits.  Here is a quick primer on what PIP payments you are entitled to:

1)  "Reasonable and necessary" medical expenses incurred within two years of your Massachusetts motor vehicle accident;

2)  75% of the wages that you lose as a result of your Massachusetts motor vehicle accident (but, you need a doctor to write a note that you are disabled from work);

3)  Funeral expenses;

4)  Ordinary and necessary household expenses.

It is your insurance company that pays you these benefits.  Or, if you were a pedestrian struck by a vehicle, the insurance company for the driver who struck you is required to pay you PIP benefits.
