Rising Cost of Motor Insurance: Discussion (Resumed)
11:00 am
Mr. Maurice Priestley:
Yes, we do. Any expense incurred as a result of an accident is included. In Ireland, hospitals are entitled to recover the cost of medical treatment provided following a motor accident. If one is entitled to pursue a claim, one is obliged to recover the cost of the hospital treatment. That is automatically included in the assessment of the claim.
