2016 Hospitality & Retail Law Compendium
This 50 State 2016 Compendium is a valuable resource provided to our ALFA International Hospitality & Retail Practice Group members and participants. The Compendium is a survey of each state's laws on:
- Does state jurisdiction maintain a collateral source rule?
- Does state jurisdiction allow plaintiff recovery for expenses written off by the healthcare provider?
- Must a plaintiff prove medical services were reasonable or necessary in order to recover?
- Must a plaintiff guarantee reimbursement payment to a healthcare provider if a judgment is rendered or settlement achieved?
- If an insurance carrier maintains a contractual agreement with a healthcare provider that reduces payments, what can a plaintiff “blackboard” as damages? (I.e., what effect does a pre-existing agreement between an insurance carrier and healthcare provider have on a plaintiff’s ability to recover medical bills?)
These topics were selected by members of the Hospitality Practice Group Client Advisory Board. The Compendium was compiled from information submitted by attorneys in ALFA International member firms from across the country.
This compendium is meant as an overview. We hope you find the materials helpful. Should you have questions, please contact a member of the ALFA International Hospitality & Retail Practice Group who can provide the appropriate in-depth analysis.
