Best Answer

Yes, If there is no other insurance company or policy liable. For example if there is another policy liable, Medicare will share in the cost after the auto policy has paid its responsibility.

We have seen cases where Medicare has paid claims and ultimately requested reimbursement from the individual because they later found another auto policy that covered the accident.
