If the Injured Person’s injuries were caused by a third party giving rise to a claim of legal liability against the third party and/or payment by the third party to the Injured Person and/or a settlement between the third party and the Injured Person, KFHPWA shall have the right to recover KFHPWA's Medical Expenses from any source available to the Injured Person as a result of the events causing the injury. This right is commonly referred to as "subrogation." KFHPWA shall be subrogated to and may enforce all rights of the Injured Person to the full extent of KFHPWA's Medical Expenses. By accepting benefits under this plan, the Injured Person also specifically acknowledges KFHPWA’s right of reimbursement. This right of reimbursement attaches when this KFHPWA has provided benefits for injuries or illnesses caused by another party and the Injured Person or the Injured Person’s representative has recovered any amounts from a third party or any other source of recovery. KFHPWA’s right of reimbursement is cumulative with and not exclusive of its subrogation right and KFHPWA may choose to exercise either or both rights of recovery. In order to secure KFHPWA’s recovery rights, the Injured Person agrees to assign KFHPWA any benefits or claims or rights of recovery they may have under any automobile policy or other coverage, to the full extent of the plan’s subrogation and reimbursement claims. This assignment allows KFHPWA to pursue any claim the Injured Person may have, whether or not they choose to pursue the claim. KFHPWA’s subrogation and reimbursement rights shall be limited to the excess of the amount required to fully compensate the Injured Person for the loss sustained, including general damages. Subject to the above provisions, if the Injured Person is entitled to or does receive money from any source as a result of the events causing the injury or illness, including but not limited to any liability insurance or uninsured/underinsured motorist funds, KFHPWA’s Medical Expenses are secondary, not primary. The Injured Person and their agents shall cooperate fully with KFHPWA in its efforts to collect KFHPWA's Medical Expenses. This cooperation includes, but is not limited to, supplying KFHPWA with information about the cause of injury or illness, any potentially liable third parties, defendants and/or insurers related to the Injured Person's claim. The Injured Person shall notify KFHPWA within 30 days of any claim that may give rise to a claim for subrogation or reimbursement. The Injured Person shall provide periodic updates about any facts that may impact KFHPWA’s right to reimbursement or subrogation as requested by KFHPWA, and shall inform KFHPWA of any settlement or other payments relating to the Injured Person’s injury. The Injured Person and their agents shall permit KFHPWA, at KFHPWA's option, to associate with the Injured Person or to intervene in any legal, quasi-legal, agency or any other action or claim filed. The Injured Person and their agents shall do nothing to prejudice KFHPWA’s subrogation and reimbursement rights. The Injured Person shall promptly notify KFHPWA of any tentative settlement with a third party and shall not settle a claim without protecting KFHPWA’s interest. The Injured Person shall provide 21 days advance notice to KFHPWA before there is a disbursement of proceeds from any settlement with a third party that may give rise to a claim for subrogation or reimbursement. If the Injured Person fails to cooperate fully with KFHPWA in recovery of KFHPWA’s Medical Expenses, and such failure prejudices KFHPWA’s subrogation and/or reimbursement rights, the Injured Person shall be responsible for directly reimbursing KFHPWA for 100% of KFHPWA’s Medical Expenses. To the extent that the Injured Person recovers funds from any source that in any manner relate to the injury or illness giving rise to KFHPWA’s right of reimbursement or subrogation, the Injured Person agrees to hold such monies in trust or in a separate identifiable account until KFHPWA’s subrogation and reimbursement rights are fully determined and that KFHPWA has an equitable lien over such monies to the full extent of KFHPWA’s Medical Expenses and/or the Injured Person agrees to serve as constructive trustee over the monies to the extent of KFHPWA’s Medical Expenses. In the event that such monies are not so held, the funds are recoverable even if they have been comingled with other assets, without the need to trace the source of the funds. Any party who distributes funds without regard to KFHPWA’s rights of subrogation or reimbursement will be personally liable to KFHPWA for the amounts so distributed. PEBB_SCA_2024 70
