Hello to all you Insurance Professionals!
Like the title says, I'm writing a novel. One of my characters gets hit by a car. Hit & run, so we don't know who hit him. He has severe injuries and is in the hospital for several weeks before he passes away. He was self-employed and didn't pay his last health insurance premium. He was hit while walking to his car. So my question is this: Is he covered under any other of his policies, like auto or homeowner's? My plan is that his widow will be hit with a huge hospital bill.
Another scenario is that he did pay his premium, but the Insurance Company will not pay because he was hit by another car.
What do you think? Are these scenarios plausible? Any and all advice or suggestions are very welcome.
And to the mods: If I'm posting this in the wrong place, my apology.
Thanks!
