The insurance company should have been compensated by the responsible party for the cost of the health care before damages are even considered in a lawsuit. Otherwise, it would be the insurance company suing the responsible party in the first place, and the insurance company bearing the burden of (and in turn suing for reimbursement of) the legal costs.
Do you have personal experience with this, or is it something you "heard"?
