Indemnisée

Indemnisée is the feminine form of the French adjective and noun derived from indemniser, used to describe a person who has received indemnification. As an adjective, indemnisée can modify a noun to indicate that compensation has been provided, as in “la partie indemnisée.” When used as a noun, indemnisée designates the recipient of indemnity, typically a victim or claimant.

In legal, insurance, and administrative contexts, an indemnisée is someone who has obtained compensation for a loss, injury, or damage. These payments may come from an insurance policy, a public scheme, or a liable party's settlement.

Indemnification often covers material damage (repair or replacement costs), medical expenses, loss of income, and, in some systems, non-pecuniary damage or moral prejudice. The scope and amount depend on the applicable law, contract terms, and the evidentiary basis of the claim.

The process typically involves filing a claim, assessing eligibility and liability, calculating the amount of compensation, and issuing payment. Claims may be subject to limits, deductibles, and conditions; disputes can lead to appeals or legal action.
