Does anyone here know what the laws are regarding epilepsy and auto insurance? I was recently in an accident, not my fault. Since there were no witnesses to the accident, it's a she said, she said. The other driver is claiming I hit her. I can't get my deductible back because the other insurance company is denying the claim. I would take the othe driver to court, but my auto insurance doesn't know I have epilepsy. They never asked about any medical issues so... Was I supposed to volunteer this information? I'm really nervous about everything now. I haven't done anything wrong.
A few days ago I received a document from the ER where I was treated after the accident, wanting to be reimbursed by the insurance company. I have to sign a medical release of information. Even if I sign the release for only the day of the ER visit, we all know the meds and the epilepsy won't be hard to figure out. I just don't see how any of this is pertinent to the ER visit. Any thoughts on the epilepsy, auto insurance, disclosure to the insurance company, or medical release of information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
