PER CURIAM.

In this automobile-insurance dispute, defendant American Guarantee and Liability Insurance Company appeals1 the September 24, 2012, order granting summary disposition to defendant Farm Bureau Insurance Company and granting in part and denying in part summary disposition to Trinity Physical Therapy, Inc. We affirm.

These appeals arise from lawsuits surrounding a claim for no-fault personal protection insurance benefits made by Jake Williams, Jr. Enjoi Transportation Solutions is a company that provides nonemergency transportation to the elderly and disabled. Enjoi transported Williams to dialysis appointments multiple times a week because Williams had ambulatory difficulties and was commonly confined to a motorized "scooter" wheelchair. On January 19, 2010, Walter Slaughter picked Williams up in an Enjoi van at approximately 2:30 p.m.; Williams remained in the scooter while being transported. At some point during the transport, Williams fell from his scooter and sustained injuries; he claimed that Slaughter had not secured the scooter in the van and had been "hitting corners" on the freeway and that this caused Williams to fall. Slaughter, on the other hand, testified that he had secured the scooter in the van and that the only way Williams could have fallen in the manner he did was if he had intentionally unlatched himself. Slaughter believed that Williams had intentionally tried to hurt himself.

On September 10, 2010, Farm Bureau filed a declaratory judgment action against Enjoi, alleging that, as a result of the above-mentioned incident, Williams filed a claim with the assigned claims facility of the Michigan Department of State; Farm Bureau had been assigned Williams's claim; and, as a result, Farm Bureau had incurred costs. On March 2, 2011, Farm Bureau filed its first amended complaint, naming American Guarantee as Enjoi's insurer and alleging that Farm Bureau was entitled to recover from American Guarantee all no-fault benefits paid to Williams because American Guarantee was a higher priority insurer.

On April 5, 2011, American Guarantee filed its answer to Farm Bureau's amended complaint and its affirmative defenses. American Guarantee stated that Williams's alleged injuries were not covered injuries because they "did not arise out of the ownership, operation, or maintenance of a motor vehicle as a motor vehicle" and Williams "did not suffer any accidental bodily injuries" on the date of the incident.

On October 6, 2011, Williams filed a complaint against Enjoi, Farm Bureau, and American Guarantee. The complaint alleged negligence against Enjoi and breach of contract against Farm Bureau and American Guarantee for failure to pay no-fault benefits. The two lawsuits were thereafter consolidated.

On June 19, 2012, Farm Bureau filed a motion for summary disposition under MCR 2.116(C)(8) and (10). In response, American Guarantee argued that there were material factual disputes regarding whether Williams's injuries actually arose out of a motor vehicle accident and regarding whether the injury was accidental. The trial court, without much explication, granted summary disposition to Farm Bureau.2

"This Court reviews de novo a trial court's decision on a motion for summary disposition." Allen v. Bloomfield Hills Sch. Dist., 281 Mich.App. 49, 52, 760 N.W.2d 811 (2008). The trial court's statements on the record make clear that it granted summary disposition under MCR 2.116(C)(10). A motion for summary disposition under MCR 2.116(C)(10) tests the factual sufficiency of the complaint. Joseph v. Auto Club Ins. Ass'n, 491 Mich. 200, 206, 815 N.W.2d 412 (2012). In reviewing a grant of summary disposition under MCR 2.116(C)(10), this Court considers the pleadings, admissions, and other evidence submitted by the parties in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party. Sallie v. Fifth Third Bank, 297 Mich.App. 115, 117-118, 824 N.W.2d 238 (2012). Summary disposition is appropriate if there is no genuine issue of material fact and the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. MCR 2.116(C)(10); Latham v. Barton Malow Co., 480 Mich. 105, 111, 746 N.W.2d 868 (2008).

We review de novo issues of statutory interpretation. Devillers v. Auto Club Ins. Ass'n, 473 Mich. 562, 566, 702 N.W.2d 539 (2005).

The no-fault act, MCL 500.3101 et seq., provides, in pertinent part:

A person who is entitled to benefits because of an accidental bodily injury arising out of an automobile accident may obtain personal protection insurance benefits through the assigned claims plan if no personal protection insurance is applicable to the injury, no applicable insurance can be identified, the personal protection insurance applicable to the injury cannot be ascertained because of a dispute between automobile insurers, or the only identifiable personal protection insurance is inadequate to cover the loss because of the insurer's inability to fulfill its financial obligations. MCL 500.3172(1). The insurer of the owner or registrant of the vehicle involved in the accident has the highest priority for payment of benefits. MCL 500.3114(5)(a).

Unpaid benefits may be collected under the assigned claims plan, and the insurer to which the claim is assigned "is entitled to reimbursement from the defaulting insurers to the extent of their financial responsibility." MCL 500.3172(1); see also Mich. Admin. Code, R 11.105 ("[t]he assigned claims facility or the servicing insurer to which the claim is assigned is entitled to reimbursement for the personal protection insurance benefits which are provided and appropriate loss adjustment costs which are incurred from an insurer who is obligated to provide the personal protection insurance benefits under a policy of insurance, but who fails to pay such benefits"). This right to reimbursement of paid benefits is independent of the rights of the party to whom the benefits were paid and is not based on a subrogation theory. Allen v. Farm Bureau Ins. Co., 210 Mich.App. 591, 596-597, 534 N.W.2d 177 (1995).

The primary task in construing the language of a statute is to discern and give effect to the intent of the legislature. Sun Valley Foods Co. v. Ward, 460 Mich. 230, 236, 596 N.W.2d 119 (1999). "If the language of the statute is unambiguous, the Legislature must have intended the meaning clearly expressed, and the statute must be enforced as written. No further judicial construction is required or permitted." Id. Courts must give undefined statutory terms their plain and ordinary meanings, and in those situations, dictionary consultation is proper. Koontz v. Ameritech Servs., Inc., 466 Mich. 304, 312, 645 N.W.2d 34 (2002).

In MCL 500.3172(1), the Legislature used the word "reimbursement." According to Random House Webster's College Dictionary (1997), "reimburse" means "to make repayment to for expense or loss incurred," or "to pay back; refund; repay." Given the plain meaning of "reimburse," an assigned claims insurer, such as Farm Bureau, is entitled to repayment for the expense or loss incurred, not subject to other limitations that may apply to a direct suit from a claimant. We emphasize that the assigned claim statutes obligated Farm Bureau, as the servicing insurer, to adjust Williams's claim. See 500.3175(1); see also, generally, Spencer v. Citizens Ins. Co., 239 Mich.App. 291, 304-305, 608 N.W.2d 113 (2000). It did so and is thus entitled to be reimbursed for the amounts paid, even assuming that a genuine issue of material fact existed regarding whether Williams truly was entitled to benefits. Farm Bureau's payment of benefits "entitled [it] to reimbursement for the personal protection insurance benefits which [were] provided...." Mich. Admin. Code, R 11.105; see also Allen, 210 Mich.App. at 596-597, 534 N.W.2d 177 (indicating that the statutorily created right to reimbursement is independent of the claimant and not a subrogation action). MCL 500.3172(1) indicates that the insurer to which the claim is assigned "is entitled to reimbursement from the defaulting insurers to the extent of their financial responsibility." In this case, American Guarantee's "financial responsibility" is necessarily tied to manner in which Farm Bureau, as the initial adjusting insurer, adjusted the claim.

Because American Guarantee admitted that it insured the Enjoi vehicle at the time of the incident, the court properly determined that American Guarantee had priority to pay for Williams's benefits. The strength of Williams's underlying claim for no-fault benefits was no longer at issue. Therefore, there was no genuine issue of material fact that Farm Bureau was entitled to reimbursement from American Guarantee, and the trial court correctly granted summary disposition to Farm Bureau.

Affirmed.
