Harm to a person’s life or health, assessed in insurance through the effects of an injury, liability and the terms of the relevant policy.
Harm to life and health means harm suffered by a person. After a road accident, this may involve an injury, loss of capacity to work or another effect on health. Insurance assessment goes beyond establishing that someone was hurt: it also considers what happened, who is liable and what the policy provides.
This glossary entry concerns people. A broken window or a damaged bumper is property damage. Both types of harm can arise in the same accident, but the evidence and rules for calculating payments differ.
Motor third-party liability concerns the duty to compensate other people for harm caused to them. For vehicle use, OSAGO, compulsory motor liability insurance, protects against covered liability. It concerns victims harmed by the driver; it does not cover every injury suffered by everyone involved in an accident.
An injury alone does not determine the payment. Medical evidence, the connection between the injury and the accident, and the relevant insurance rules matter. The name of a term cannot establish entitlement in advance.
In the voluntary liability section of EUROASIA's KASKO offer, physical harm is described through injuries and harm to third parties' life or health resulting in loss of capacity to work, disability or death. This is a definition used in that particular contract. It must not be applied to every policy or treated as a universal OSAGO requirement.
Vehicle cover, liability cover and personal accident cover serve different purposes. A policy that provides for car repairs does not necessarily pay for injuries to the driver or passengers under the same cover. Check who and which events the selected programme protects.
An insurance payment requires information about the effects of the injury. The insurer reviews medical and other documents under the rules of the relevant type of insurance. Under OSAGO, compensation for harm to life and health is calculated using the prescribed payment table.
A clinic bill helps establish expenses, but its amount is not automatically the insurance payment. Check the calculation rules, coverage limits and grounds for the claim separately. Even identical treatment costs may lead to different outcomes under different contracts.
Read the relevant contract section as well as the programme name. This helps distinguish liability to a victim from protection for your own health.
Get the medical care you need first. Keep injury reports, accident documents, prescriptions and evidence of expenses where relevant to your claim. Contact the insurer to confirm the notification procedure and the exact documents required for your case. The guide to claiming under OSAGO explains the claim process further.
Keep medical documents separate from the assessment of car repairs. If the responsible driver is unidentified or uninsured, compensation is not necessarily unavailable: the law provides for compensation payments in specified cases. Those grounds must be checked separately.
Assuming any car policy covers your own injury; treating every medical bill as the final payment amount; applying one contract's definition to another. In each case, checking the terms of the actual cover is more useful than relying on a familiar name.
The examples below are fictional. The amounts illustrate situations; they are not prices, coverage limits or promises of payment.
Nodira was injured through another driver’s fault. Treatment cost 6 million UZS; she has medical records and documents confirming the circumstances of the accident.
She claims under the responsible owner’s OSAGO policy. The insurer checks liability and the effects of the injury, then calculates the payment under the rules of that type of insurance. Costs of 6 million UZS do not automatically mean a payment of the same amount.
After an accident in Samarkand, Aziz claimed expenses of 7 million UZS. Documents support 5 million; further information is needed for the remaining 2 million.
Aziz checks which documents are missing and submits them to the insurer. Documented expenses and the insurance payment are different amounts: the outcome depends on the grounds for the claim and the calculation rules.
Bekzod caused an accident in Andijan and was injured himself. He spent 4 million UZS on treatment and expected his own OSAGO policy to pay.
His OSAGO covers liability to victims, rather than his own injury. For personal protection, he checks separate accident cover if he has it, together with the terms of that contract.
This is a road incident in which harm was caused to people, vehicles, roads, structures, or other property.
This is a simplified procedure for recording a traffic accident without calling traffic police, when the drivers themselves document the circumstances for insurance settlement.
KASKO is insurance that protects not someone else’s car, but your own. Put very simply, it is like a financial safety cushion for your vehicle: if there is an accident, a broken window, parking damage, a fallen tree, or even theft, the insurance company can take on part of the big expenses. The main idea is simple: KASKO helps you avoid facing major car-related costs alone.
Motor Third-Party Liability is an obligation to compensate for harm caused to other people or their property through the use of a vehicle. Who is responsible for the harm is determined by law and the circumstances of the incident.
Insurance for a car loan is protection connected not just with the car itself, but with buying that car on credit. Put very simply, the bank gives money for the vehicle and wants to be sure that both the car and the repayment process remain protected. That is why insurance often comes together with a car loan: it helps reduce risks both for the bank and for the borrower if something serious happens to the car.
This is a modular car insurance product in which the vehicle owner chooses which parts of the car and which risks to insure.
