Minnesota is a no-fault state, which means that your own auto insurance company pays your bills regardless of who’s at fault for the accident. It does not mean that fault doesn’t matter, but it means that you turn to your own insurance first. And there’s typically $20,000 of medical expenses and $20,000 of wage-related expenses that are available under your own policy. And that’s where you would turn first.

Rochester, MN personal injury lawyer Paul Dahlberg talks how your insurance company will pay for your medical bills, regardless of who’s at fault for the accident. He explains that in Minnesota, being a no-fault state means that your auto insurance company is responsible for paying your medical bills, regardless of who is at fault for the accident. This does not diminish the importance of determining fault, but it prioritizes your own insurance coverage. Typically, there is a coverage limit of $20,000 for medical expenses and an additional $20,000 for wage-related expenses available under your own policy. These coverages are the primary resources you would turn to initially.
