BILL NUMBER:A11116 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the insurance law, in relation to losses sustained as a result of intoxication PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: To make certain that health care providers are compensated for their services regardless of the fact that the insured was injured as a result of operating a motor vehicle in an intoxicated condition and to allow insurers a right of recovery where the injured person is found guilty of operating a motor vehicle while in an intoxicated condition or while his ability to operate a motor vehicle is impaired by the use of drugs or alcohol. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Section one amends subsection (b) of section 5103 of the Insurance Law to provide that health care providers which render any of the services otherwise covered by no-fault auto insurance medical benefits and in accordance with their obligations under law and regulations regarding emergency care and the screening, treatment and stabilization of patients, are reimbursed for their services. It also permits insurers to recover payments that they have made for these services from the individual in the event he or she is found guilty of a DWI or DUI offense.
