| This bill provides that casualty insurers providing medical |
| payments coverage may not institute any action to recover |
| payments made to an insured from an insurer of a person legally |
| responsible for the insured's injury prior to the insured |
| obtaining a recovery, either through settlement or through trial, |
| without the prior written consent of the insured obtained after |
| the insurer notifies its insured of its desire to take such |
| action. |
