Bagnaia and Marquez exchanged heated gestures in the gravel following the incident, but initially, it seemed they had not sustained serious injuries.
Marquez drifted off course while holding onto third place, with just six laps left in the race.
Starting from the fourth spot, Bagnaia attempted a pass.
Bagnaia's Ducati appeared to be closely trailing right behind Marquez's.
The two bicycles became entangled and veered off the path.
For a few moments, Bagnaia found himself trapped under Marquez's Ducati during their slide.
However, he stood up and motioned towards Marquez, indicating he was fine.
He departed, his leathers ripped and worn on his arm, but perhaps lucky that the harm wasn't more severe.
Bagnaia visited the healthcare facility for an examination.
Less than half an hour after their mishap, Bagnaia and Marquez were observed strolling through the paddock, no longer in their racing suits, and appearing to be without injuries.
Stewards are currently conducting an investigation into the incident.
Defending MotoGP titleholder Bagnaia began Sunday three points behind the current points leader, Jorge Martin.
Martin's second-place finish at the Aragon MotoGP on Sunday has now placed him at the top of the championship standings, leading by 23 points.
Marc Marquez clinched the victory in the race.
