Reasonable Charges and Reasonable Value of Medical Services in Texas Personal Injury Cases

Past and future medical expenses are major elements of damages in personal injury cases. In many cases they are by far the largest element of “hard” damages and are used as a reference point for jurors in awarding pain and suffering and other “soft” damages. While plaintiffs should be fairly compensated for their medical expenses, the expenses should not be unfairly inflated. Recently we modified an actual report on reasonable charges and reasonable value for a defendant to create a sample report showing RPC’s data sources and methods of analysis for part medical expenses. The sample report is available to download here.
