why are we charged 20%. Is there any provision for the insurer or it's agent to notify the insured they are eligible for reduced premiums because of wages lost due to retirement? Will this reduce the MCCA assessment or is this just for the coverage and premium listed under Personal Injury Protection?

the bill also makes maximum loss of wages benefit payable from %1000 per month to $4400 per month RETROACTIVE TO 2005! Why has it become necessary to make it retroactive? How much will this cost? Where is this money going to come from? How many recipients are there presently recieving benefits for loss of wages and how often is their medical status reviewed and by who?

Why would we be forced to pay 20 per cent, and why would you have to wait until age 65. There are many people who have lost their jobs due to injurys on the job, and who are on medicare and medicade at this time because of the on the job injury. I for one could use a brake on my insurance now not 5 years from now. Why is that all decreases in costs happen a few years down the road, not right away when the bill is passed?

Anyone 65 and older who thinks this is a good deal should think again. Right now the MCCA Has to take care of all your cost for life if need be due to a Motor vehicle accident. If you are a driver, passenger, pedestrian, or what ever. If you think Medicare will or is going to do that, you are dead wrong. This is nothing more than the Insurance Industries and their Legislative lackeys grab for more profit and less cost. Any Representative or Senator voting for this is not looking out for your best interest.
