| 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. |
