The dentist and the insurance company have dealt with you in bad faith. The insurance company probably did hope that you'd just go away. You aren't going to be able to fight this on your own, unfortunately. It's hard to say, without specialized knowledge of the laws in your area, to know who is responsible--the dentist, the old insurance company, or the new insurance company. Find a malpractice attorney who will work on contingency--don't pay an attorney anything up front. You definitely need an attorney to work through this now.

The incident occurred while he was covered by that company. Doesn't seem likely that the new insurance company would pick up the liability of an incident before they were paid to cover the dentist. Have you actually filed a lawsuit? Do you have an attorney? If the negotiations have died out, you may have to get an attorney and file suit.

But in all likelihood, the first insurance company is responsible for paying you since they were covering the dentist at the time the incident took place (just like with cars, the company that is covering you on the day of the accident is responsible). They may try to blow you off, telling you it's no longer their problem. Don't let them just disappear without paying your settlement.
