January 1, 2014 is the start date for health reform's requirement that people have health insurance. This applies to U.S. citizens.

You can go three months without coverage, and not have to pay the penalty. The law does not allow the IRS to pursue you to pay the penalty; they cannot put a lien on your house, or garnish your wages.

If a pedestrian is found at fault in an accident involving a car and pedestrian which insurance would pay the medical bills - the auto insurance or the pedestrian's health insurance?

Since Pedestrians always have the Right of Way, It is very rare if not impossible to find them at fault unless fraud or gross negligence can be established. Traditionally The drivers liability insurance will pay their medical bills. It depends on your state's laws, but typically -- and strangely enough -- you'll find that the auto insurance will cover the pedestrian's medical bills. On the other hand, if your state doesn't require you to carry medical coverage (either Medpay or PIP) on your car insurance, the pedestrian might have to go to his or her health carrier. The reasoning behind this is that, despite liability, it's against public policy to not cover the medical bills of a pedestrian hit by an automobile. If auto insurance didn't pick up those bills, it would have a cascade effect on all the medical providers and vendors who attended the pedestrian.

If you are a passenger in an uninsured driver's vehicle does that mean that you are not covered either if he has an accident?

If you mean are your medical bills covered -- and assuming your state requires medical coverage on auto insurance policies -- then, no, you wouldn't be covered by any policy of the driver's since, of course, no policy exists. However, if you have your own auto policy, that policy would then become primary. After that, your health insurance would be primary. Unfortunately for the uninsured driver, if you do have to go through your own health insurance, there's a big possibility that they will go after the driver for any payments they make, particularly if a driver is legally required to carry auto insurance in your state (again, insurance that included medical coverage).
