While a home policy does provide the policyholder with both Personal Liability and Medical Payments coverages to pay for injuries, these coverages can only be paid to a third party and will not cover injuries that are sustained by either you or residents of your household. If you are injured in your home, the only option to pay for medical bills is medical insurance.
Sorry but this is not a covered cause. Also the damage can be fixed for far less than your deductible. It is probably just sheetrock damage which is easy to repair.
It depends on what coverage you bought and who was working on the roof.
