Explicación
Subrogation is the insurer's right, after paying a covered claim, to step into the insured's position and pursue the third party responsible for the loss. It prevents the insured from collecting twice and supports the principle of indemnity. The insured must avoid any action after a loss that would impair the insurer's ability to subrogate, such as signing away claims against the responsible party.
