The Department of Defense is responsible for all documentation related to the United States military. There are a lot of documents regarding military service and injury benefits. One of these forms is the DD2527, otherwise known as the third party liability form. This DD Form 2527 is used to explain any situation in which the condition of the beneficiary was caused by a work-related injury or accident. The form is used to have the Federal US Government to recover any medical care expenses from whoever caused your injury. You can use this Statement of Personal Injury fillable form and edit it however you need to to recover your medical expenses. This Personal Injury form documents what injury was inflicted and how it was inflicted. The processing of your TRICARE claim will be suspended until you complete and return this form. You can edit the form here with PDFSimpli.

What Is a DD Form 2527 PDF Used For?

When another individual, business, organization, or other involved third parties might have been responsible for a claimant's injury, this is referred to as third party liability. In these cases, the third-party entity or their insurer might be responsible for paying the claimant's health insurance claims regarding their illness or injury. After a healthcare provider submits your claim to TRICARE to receive compensation, they're required to give information about the reason that you were seen. Healthcare providers accomplish this by using a diagnosis code that describes your illness or injury. Certain diagnosis codes indicate that the illness or injury might have been caused by an outside third party. If TRICARE receives a claim with these codes, the patient will be mailed the DD 2527 form so that TRICARE can get more information about how the illness or injury happened. In some cases, TRICARE will receive a claim with a diagnosis code that may or may not be caused by a third party. One example would be if you have medical complications after surgery. Even if you think there's no possibility that a third person was liable, you should still complete the form if it's mailed to you. It's important to be as detailed and thorough when describing the situation as possible.

Who Would Use a DD Form 2527 PDF?

This form must be used when TRICARE sends it to you. If you've been sent this form, that indicates that your illness or injury was of a type that TRICARE determines may have been caused by a third party. Even if you're positive there was no third party involvement, you're still required to submit the form. The point of the form is to gather as much information about the illness or injury as possible, so TRICARE can determine whether any third parties can be held liable.

When Should a DD Form 2527 PDF Be Used?

This DD 2527 form should only be used if you were specifically sent it by TRICARE. TRICARE will request that you submit the form so that they can make a determination regarding liability in your insurance claim. You do have an obligation to return the form in the 35 day period following its arrival in your mailbox. Failure to do so will almost always result in your insurance claim being denied.

What Are the Consequences to Not Using a DD Form 2527 PDF?

If you don't file this form when it's requested of you, TRICARE will most likely deny your medical and insurance claims. At this point, the providers of these services will send you a direct bill for your medical treatment. Since medical treatment costs such an exorbitant amount of money, this option isn't necessarily available for everybody in the United States. It's better to fill out the form when asked, provide as much detail as possible, and submit it as soon as possible.

Quick Questions

TRICARE sends out this form if a medical claim meets any predetermined diagnosis codes that might indicate third party liability. Even though your diagnosis code fit this possibility, this isn't a guarantee that a third party was liable for the injury.

Yes. Even if you know that third party liability wasn't involved, TRICARE doesn't. You need to give them information about your injury so that they also understand the lack of third party involvement.

Hiring a representative should not have a negative impact on your claim. TRICARE asks for information about your representative so that they can contact them in the future. Documentation and processing would then be done through the representative.
