Accident Victim

Reimbursement of Expenses

The Société will reimburse certain expenses incurred due to an accident if they are not already covered by a social security scheme, under terms set by regulation.

Qualifying expenses relate to:

• outlays on personal care at home;
• substitute labour costs for a family business (the remuneration paid to someone for replacing the accident victim, who had been working without pay);
• the escort of a victim for treatment or to a medical examination requested by the Société;
• medical and paramedical care as well as travel expenses to receive that care;
• the purchase of prostheses, orthopedic devices or eyeglasses;
• ambulance transportation;
• cleaning or repair of the clothing or protective helmet worn that was damaged in the accident, or replacement of the clothing if it cannot be cleaned or repaired;*
• the purchase of medication.

*The Société reserves the right to require an inspection of these articles. It is therefore important to keep the clothing or protective helmet until the Société has reached a decision.
