Injury incidents

An injury incident is an object that captures loss information about a single injury that a claimant suffered.

An injury incident typically includes an inline damageable named injuredPerson, with fields that describe inherent qualities of the person, such as firstName and lastName. The injury incident also contains additional information specific to the injury, such as ambulenceused, primaryDoctor, and treatmentType. You do not have to specify injuredPerson when creating an injury incident. If you do want to specify injuredPerson, you can either:

• Specify an existing ClaimContact on the policy by providing its policySystemId.
• Specify an existing ClaimContact on the claim by providing its ClaimCenter id.
• Create a new ClaimContact in the included section and reference that ClaimContact by refid.
