Compare the limit separately
Do not assume the medical-payments limit is the same as the personal-liability limit. Record both when comparing policies.
Check who and what is excluded
Household members, the insured, business-related injuries, or other situations may be treated differently. Read the eligibility and exclusion wording.
A smaller no-fault-style coverage is different from liability
Medical payments to others is typically designed for smaller guest medical expenses under the policy terms and does not require the same liability determination as a full liability claim.
