Legal Question in Personal Injury in North Carolina

Pi case

Wondering if there is case law out there that would support the theory that if a not at fault pary was injured in a MVA and then had to get private health care coverage, and the new health care coverage was at a higer premium due to the accident, shouldn't the at fault parties carrier be liable for these increased costs?
