In the scenario where an insured injures themselves at home, the homeowners policy may provide coverage for medical expenses. Homeowners insurance often includes a provision for medical payments to others, which can cover injuries sustained by guests on the property. Furthermore, some homeowners policies extend this coverage to the insured's family members residing in the home.

This coverage is designed to address minor injuries without the need for liability determinations and is typically intended for medical expenses rather than pain and suffering claims. It reflects a consumer-protection approach that allows for efficient resolution of medical bills in the event of an accidental injury occurring on the premises.

In contrast, the auto and boat policies are specifically targeted towards incidents related to vehicles and watercraft, and therefore do not cover injuries sustained on home property. Additionally, if the injury occurs without third-party involvement or negligence, it may not trigger coverage from those other policies, reinforcing why the homeowners policy is the appropriate source of coverage in this situation.
