The Michigan Assigned Claims Plan compensates those injured in accidents where the at-fault driver was uninsured, fled the scene, or whose insurance company denied their claim. It also applies to pedestrians and bicyclists who were not driving a vehicle.
To be eligible for compensation under the Michigan Assigned Claims Plan, an individual must meet the following requirements:
- They must have been injured in an automobile accident in Michigan.
- The accident must have been caused by an uninsured motor vehicle or involved in a hit-and-run.
- The injured individual is not covered by their own insurance policy or the policy of a resident relative or spouse.
The Michigan Assigned Claims Plan covers a range of benefits that an individual may suffer the loss of because of an automobile accident, including:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Replacement services
- Attendant care
