ABSTRACT

The paper analyzes a sample of closed automobile accident claim cases drawn from a large Korea insurer in order to test whether claimants decide bodily injury claims for settlement payment and the relationship between settlement payment and medical expense. The test result shows that minor accident injurers intend to claim bodily injury liabilities for settlement payment and that claimants receive proportionally lower settlement payment when medical expenses exceed insurer’s expected value. These results imply that the indemnification schedule of a Korea auto insurance company seems to deter excess medical expense as literature has shown.
