What is a subrogation questionnaire?

A subrogation questionnaire is a routine form your health plan, or a company it hires, sends after it pays for treatment related to an injury. It asks whether someone else, another driver, a business, an employer, might also be responsible for that injury.

Your plan's records show a claim tied to an injury rather than an illness, for example an accident, a fall, or a workplace incident. That pattern alone triggers the letter. It doesn't mean your plan suspects anything unusual about your claim.

How the injury happened, whether it occurred on someone else’s property or in a vehicle accident, and whether another insurance policy, like auto or homeowners, might cover it instead. Some versions ask whether an attorney is already involved.

Health plans commonly hold or deny payment for the related visits until a questionnaire like this is answered. That is a standard plan mechanic, not a decision about you. We can’t predict what your plan will do in your specific case. This is how these letters generally work.
