When an insurance company pays an auto injury claim, do all passengers get seperate checks?

I got into a car accident and had 1 other passenger. When the insurance company compensates us for the injury claim, will it be 1 check or 2?

1. Separate checks. But the money will go straight to the hospital, medical clinic or chiropractor first. If you and the passenger are seeking reimbursement for pain and suffering, lost wages, etc then that's a separate claim. You, your passenger and the adjuster will need to agree on a settlement before a check is issued. And the check will be separate.
2. Separate checks will be issued, since there are two separate claims w/ two separate settlement releases. If liens have been placed on the claims' files, either the provider's names will be included on the check, or a check will be sent directly to the providers. If an attorney is involved, the attorney's name will also be included.
