Have you ever been injured due to someone else’s fault? If this happens, don’t forget to report it to your local health insurance provider.

What situations are injuries caused by others?

These situations involve bodily harm caused by another person, either intentionally or unintentionally. This "other person" should be responsible for the event and can be a natural person (personne physique), a company or a legal person (personne morale).

What if I am injured and require medical treatment or medical leave?

Victims injured by others should first report to the medical insurance center or occupational health agency. The person directly responsible for the accident must also report to his medical insurance institution, occupational health institution and victim unit.

Why declare?

This declaration procedure allows your medical insurance center to know the medical insurance information of the person responsible for the accident. In this way, the medical insurance center can notify the insurance company of the responsible person to be responsible for paying the relevant expenses for your treatment (medical expenses, daily allowance, disability benefit, etc.).

How to do it?

If you are injured by someone else, please notify your health insurance center as early as possible within 15 days by phone or letter, stating your name, your Social Security number, and a description of the accident (date, time, location, cause etc.) and the consequences of the injury (medical treatment, sick leave, etc.). At the same time, please write down the identity of the person responsible for causing your injury and the identities of some of the major witnesses around you. Inform all relevant medical institutions about the treatment status of relevant medical personnel: doctors, nurses, plastic surgeons, orthopedists, dentists, pharmacy doctors, etc. They can also fill in the medical form for you? Accident caused by others? This column as proof.

Next, your medical insurance center will send you an accident investigation form for you to fill out to understand the specific circumstances of the accident.
