Swapping a fork is not a trivial operation. Just like cars: the whole is greater (much) than the sum of its parts thereof. I DOUBT the insurance company is going to part out your bike and pay your claim based on the going price of the damaged components. Your bike will very likely be 'totaled'.
Getting side-swiped and T-boned are two different things. We need to hear the whole story. Lots of speculation on the internet.
