WHAT IS MVAIC?

MVAIC stands for Motor Vehicle Accident Indemnification Corporation. If you have been in a motor vehicle accident, No-Fault and Bodily Injury coverage are a means of compensation for medical bills, lost wages and bodily injury. In some instances, these types of coverage may not be available to the injured party. If you are injured in an accident and have absolutely no access to No-Fault or Bodily Injury coverage, you may be eligible to receive this coverage through this non-profit organization called the Motor Vehicle Accident Indemnification Corporation.
