Usually the health insurer will record a lien, and, as, that lien will have to be paid off. The amount of the lien may be able to be negotiated downward after you receive settlement money. * If you are validly insured then it is the responsibility of the insurer to cover those costs which are covered under the existing policy. that is why you pay insurance premiums in the first place. Depending on the circumstances the insurer may try to recover monies paid for medical expenses from the person or the person's insurer who was At Fault in the accident. Liens are only possible if a lawsuit is won and a judgment is awarded to the plaintiff. The exception being a Mechanic's lien which is used to recover costs for repairs or improvement of the real property in question.

∙ 7y agoIf you have coverage on your auto insurance policy that pays medical expenses to you or to the hospital, the answer is yes that you do have to reimburse your health care provider. The health insurance policy states that they will pay for expenses incurred in an auto accident over and above any coverage you may have on your auto insurance. You agreed to this in your policy by taking out the policy, so you have no choice. It is actually illegal for you to pocket money you received in duplicate payment for the same expenses, which is what this would be.
