New Jersey injury law, in practice

New Jersey is a no-fault state where the insured chooses both their PIP limit and whether they retain the right to sue for pain and suffering. For treating practices the defining feature is Decision Point Review: most care beyond the initial period must be precertified with the insurer before it is provided, or it will not be paid.
