Not if you haven't already accepted the payment. Your policy most likely states that if you 'accept' payment from a tortfeasor then you waive the right to recovery from your own policy. Also, if you have accepted payment but the amount you have accepted is less than the deductible under your own policy, your insurance company may still allow you to file under your own policy. The company will then pursue the tortfeasor or their insurance company for the remaining amount of the damage.

Can your company be penalized for a pre existing condition you do not list on your application for group health insurance?

Presumably in this context it is your employer providing you with health insurance.It is not that your company would be penalized, it is that the insurance company would refuse to pay for treatment of the preexisting condition. They set rates according to the known health of their pool of insured people. But upon signing up for your company's insurance plan you failed to divulge a known condition, and signed the statement saying you were giving the insurance company an accurate statement of your health, so you lied to them (aka committed fraud). That generally voids your policy.Check the particular wording of your own insurance policy regarding preexisting conditions.
