Statute Text
(2), as personal injury protection payments and from any other source
of payment from or on behalf of the party whose fault caused the injuries.
(c) An injured
person has not received full compensation for the injured persons injuries if
the injured person recovers an amount that is equal to the coverage available
to the injured person from the sum of benefits paid under another persons
motor vehicle liability policy, under an underinsured motorist policy described
in ORS 742.502 (2), as personal injury protection payments and from any other
source of payment from or on behalf of the party whose fault caused the
injuries.
(3) An insurer
may not deny or refuse to provide benefits that are otherwise available to an
injured person because of the potential the injured person has to make a claim
or bring an action against another person or enter into a settlement with
another person.
(4) A person with
whom an injured person enters into a settlement or from whom the injured person
obtains a judgment in connection with a claim or action may not name an insurer
that seeks a reimbursement or subrogation under ORS 742.536 or 742.538 as a payee
on a check, draft or other form of payment in satisfaction of the claim or
judgment.
(5) An insurer
may not delay, withhold or reduce benefits to an injured person because of an
act or omission for which a third party is or may be liable or as a means of
enforcing or attempting to enforce a claim for reimbursement or subrogation.
(6) An insurer
that receives a reimbursement for benefits the insurer provided to an injured
person shall apply the amount of the reimbursement as a credit against any
lifetime maximum benefit set forth for the injured person in the policy,
benefit plan or contract under which the insurer paid the benefits.
(7) A provision
in a policy, benefit plan or contract that permits reimbursement or subrogation
other than as provided in this section is void and unenforceable.
(8) This section
does not:
(a) Prohibit
insurers from coordinating benefits;
(b) Limit an
insurers right to seek reimbursement or subrogation to recover, without
reduction, amounts the insurer paid for property damage;
(c) Limit an
insurer that provided coverage against underinsured motorists from pursuing a
claim against a party at fault; or
(d) Require a
person to repay more than the amount of personal injury protection benefits
that the person actually received. [1993 c.709 §9; 2015 c.5 §5; 2019 c.460 §4]
