Courts and Judicial Proceedings - Evidence - Rebuttable Presumption of Medical Bills

Summary

The bill automatically treats any medical bill that is properly provided during discovery in a personal injury or wrongful‑death case as authentic, fair and reasonable. A party may defeat that presumption by proving, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the bill or any charge is inaccurate, unfair, or unreasonable. No expert testimony is required to establish authenticity.
