Probably your only recourse to recover damage expenses would be a lawsuit. You should be certain however that a judgment is collectible before pursuing legal options. If you can't collect the money you would be out even more $ with the legal fees.

Do you still get paid by the other driver's insurance if he was at fault but you had no insurance?

Yes, but keep in mind that the other insurer may dispute liability (fault) and the extent of damages. Further, the other driver would have to have had liability insurance in order for you to get paid. Depending upon the jurisdiction in which you/he live(s), there may only be a requirement that property damage liability insurance be maintained. Therefore, if you sustained bodily injuries in the collision, the other driver would have been effectively uninsured.

If you only have liability insurance will it pay your hospital bill?

No. Liability insurance is only for injuries and damage suffered by others. So if you are injured and it's the other driver's fault, then their liability coverage will pay your medical bills. But if the other driver doesn't have liability insurance, which is illegal nearly everywhere but still pretty common, then you're in trouble. If you're at fault, then your own liability insurance does nothing. You could sue the responsible driver to get the money. Since people who don't have insurance tend not to have a lot of spare money, you will likely end up relying on your own health insurance. You could also buy Uninsured Motorist insurance for bodily injury as part of your car insurance, which pays for your health costs if you get hit by a driver without insurance. Personal Injury Protection insurance can also be bought as part of your car insurance, which pays the health bills of an insured driver, regardless of who is at fault.
