Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Employees: Navigating the Financial Implications of Fallen Tree Damage on Your Property

Healthcare Provider Update: Healthcare Provider for Regeneron Pharmaceuticals: Regeneron Pharmaceuticals primarily collaborates with a range of healthcare providers, including hospitals, specialty clinics, and other medical organizations that focus on treating conditions related to its drug portfolio. The company often works with health systems, managed care organizations, and practices that specialize in therapeutic areas such as oncology, ophthalmology, and immunology, with notable partnerships aimed at advancing clinical research and access to its innovative treatments. Potential Healthcare Cost Increases in 2026: As we approach 2026, healthcare costs are projected to surge significantly, largely due to the anticipated expiration of enhanced federal subsidies under the Affordable Care Act and continued inflation in medical expenses. Reports suggest that some states may face premium hikes exceeding 60%, potentially increasing out-of-pocket costs for enrollees by up to 75%. This turbulence stems from a convergence of higher medical costs, substantial drug spending, and a regulatory landscape that pressures insurers to increase rates. Without timely congressional action to renew premium tax credits, many consumers could be priced out of affordable healthcare coverage. Click here to learn more

Are Regeneron Pharmaceuticals employees responsible for the damage caused by a tree on their property that hits their neighbor’s home or other insured structure, such as a garage or shed?

In most cases, the answer is “no.”

When such damage occurs to your neighbor’s home due to forces outside your control (e.g., weather events), your neighbors may have to file a claim with their insurer to receive a reimbursement for the damage a fallen down tree caused.

There is one exception, however.

If it is determined that the tree damage stems from your negligence (e.g., dead limbs that you refused to cut down, or you chose to trim your tree as a weekend project), then the neighbor’s insurer may come after you to recover their loss—a process called subrogation.¹

You may want to check your policy or speak to your insurance agent to ascertain if your homeowner's policy covers your liability in cases of negligence.

Some neighbors may seek to bring legal action against you, though often that is unnecessary.

For those working at Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, determine what municipal laws are in place to cover such instances. Generally speaking, you are not responsible unless you knew, or should have known, about the danger. Proving what you knew or should have known can be difficult and costly in a court of law. It typically benefits both parties to arrive at a compromise that avoids an expensive legal process.
