- Title
"No Fault" Insurance, Health Care, and Discrimination.
- Authors
Curran, William J.
- Abstract
The article focuses on the no-fault automobile insurance scheme called Basic Protection Plan proposed by professors Robert Keeton and Jeffrey O'Connell of Harvard and Illinois Law Schools. The initiative was due to the increasing incidence of automobile personal injury suits filed at American courts. It was eventually adopted in the home states of the professors and was found constitutional by the highest Court of the state. Under the new law, provisions coverage would benefit the insured individual including his immediate family, occupants of his car and pedestrians hit by his car.
