Hopefully the Police can provide the info, if not hopefully your insurance company can. You may end up filing a lawsuit, with all the expense, to force the government to release the contact info.

Is someone who was in an accident months ago and still have unpaid medical bills would it be still be covered by the insurance company?

This may be a tricky situation. Did you report the accident? Who was at fault? Was the coverage limit exhausted? Several factors may come into play. If limits were not exhausted, you did not settle the claim and sign a release, the company did not reimburse you for the claims that you did not forward to the medical provider, and the time period for filing in your state has not expired, then you need to contact your adjuster to get them paid and it shouldn't be an issue at all. Just make sure they have the claims and that


Is it illegal to release medical records to a car insurance company without consent of the patient?

At the clinic I work at, we have patients sign a release once a year allowing us to submit claims to their insurance company for the year. It doesn't specify which insurance company though. I would check with your clinic to see if you have signed something of the sort. And if not then it probably is illegal for your clinic to submit a claim without your permission.

Rear end accident not at fault party can the insurance company of the at fault party legally deny to pay any medical bills until claim is settled?

It's been my experience the answer is yes. We also were rear ended, the other party was completely and totally at fault. This caused me to have to get a lawyer as the insurance company was not paying the medical bills that were accumulating which I would have ultimately been responsible for. The Dr's were not interested in treating as well because they weren't getting paid. Having a lawyer guarantee's that the Dr's will be paid, you will get the treatment you need and you will not be responsible for the expensive medical bills. It also simplifies the billing process. If you receive a bill at home put it in the mail it goes to the lawyer. You will not have to spend hours on the phone trying to figure out who is billing who or lose sleep over whether or not you would have to be responsible for the huge expenses. The insurance company won't pay out until you have a medical release, but how are you going to get a medical release if they won't pay for the treatment. Makes no sense.


Can you still collect a release from an insurance company after you have won or lost a civil suit against the other party involved in an accident?

What kind of release are you talking about? If you file a claim with your insurance company for Uninsured Motorists Coverage, you are awarding the company with the rights of subrogation. This means that you are giving them your right to sue the other party. If you did not have UM coverage and sued the other party on your own. In both of these cases you are not dealing with the insurance company directly, except if they call you to testify in their subrogation case against the other party.

Is there a way to find someones auto insurance info?

Well, you could ask them. If this is pursuant to an auto crash or something like that, insurance info can be obtained through the NCIC database used by law enforcement personnel, though they may not release that information to you. If this is about a crash, your best bet is to submit the accident to your insurance company and let them track down the other company.
