I think you need to let this play out some more. First, you have to give your insurer the ability to do their thing, which will include some amount of pain & suffering compensation toward you. The insurer will go after Caltrans for reimbursement, that you can bet on. If your "settlement" via the insurer is not to your approval, then you may have to bring in your own counsel to negotiate something different. Or you just get totally peezed off and sue them all. That's how the legal system works. Just remember that the lawyers always get their take, and it's usually quite significant. Often times people that start out being reasonable and just want their health costs taken care of get squirrelly (i.e. greed) and then you're mired in the courts for a looooong time trying to gain restitution that you would have had months prior otherwise.
