Wichita Car Accident Attorney Explains Kansas No-Fault (PIP): What Pays, Deadlines & Next Steps

By Bradley A. Pistotnik, Wichita car accident attorney, Bull Attorneys, P.A.

Kansas's no-fault system (PIP) gets bills paid first—then you pursue the at-fault driver for the rest. Here's how benefits, deadlines and liens work in Sedgwick County claims.

PIP basics most Kansans overlook

PIP typically covers medical expenses, a portion of lost wages, rehabilitation and in-home assistance, regardless of fault. You can often buy higher limits—and you should.

Key Kansas statutes

Policies must include PIP and minimum liability limits (K.S.A. 40-3107). PIP benefits are primary and generally payable within 30 days of proper notice (K.S.A. 40-3110).

Local note: Butler & Sedgwick traffic volume

Butler County recorded 1,347 crashes in 2023 (16 deaths, 367 injuries). Sedgwick County had 10,217.
