- Authors
Venker, Paul N.
- Abstract
The article discusses the analysis of Section 490.715.5, Missouri Revised Statutes (RSMo) intended to limit the collateral source rule for medical expenses recovery. The section allows a plaintiff for the recovery of his or her loss for the amount paid for medical treatment. It says that people should not consider the section as a ground-breaking law to recover medical expenses, rather as a context of modern billing practice. The Farmer-Cummings v. Personnel Pool of Platte County case is given.
