Insurance term
Personal Injury Protection (PIP)
Personal Injury Protection (PIP) is a type of auto insurance coverage that helps pay certain medical expenses and, in some states, other related costs after a car accident, no matter who caused the crash. Depending on the state and policy, it may also help cover lost wages, essential services, or funeral expenses.
Example
After a rear-end collision, Maria uses her PIP coverage to help pay for her ER visit and a few weeks of lost income while she recovers.
