The personal injury claim should be filed with both the school district's insurance carrier and the carnival's insurance carrier because both are liable for your wife's injury.
Compensation for the medical bills is straight reimbursement. The medical reports document the injury and are used to determine compensation for pain and suffering, which is an amount in addition to the medical bills. Compensation for wage loss is straight reimbursement.
