Since the early 1990’s, all automobile policies in Ontario have included statutory accident benefits coverage. The accident benefits you are entitled to following a motor vehicle accident injury, even if the accident was your fault, include:
- Income replacement
- Non-earner benefit
- Caregiver benefit
- Housekeeping benefit
- Attendant care benefit
- Medical and rehabilitation expenses
Even with these rights, you still need to manage complex accident benefits claims to get the compensation and benefits you need and are owed to you from the Motor Vehicle Accident Claims Fund (MVACF). Accident victims understandably often have the impression the accident benefits process is simple, but usually it’s not.
