SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Subrogation rights of insurance companies. Eliminates the prohibition on subrogation rights by insurers by providing that an insurer shall have a right of subrogation with respect to those expenses associated with any medical bills upon which (i) the injured insured relies in asserting a personal injury action or (ii) the insured decedent's personal representative relies in a wrongful death action. Any recovery is limited to 25 percent of the amounts paid on behalf of the injured insured and the subrogated insurer is required to pay a pro rata share of the legal fees and costs incurred by the injured insurer or personal representative in the principal personal injury or wrongful death action.
