Proving your medical bills is a hard problem for most of my clients to understand. The general public assumes that once you get treatment for your injuries in a truck accident case that you simply provide your medical bills to the insurance company. If your lawsuit is filed, you have to prove your medical bills by taking medical proof by way of depositions. There are three components of proving your medical expenses . One lawyer has refered to it as the trifecta. Under Tennessee Law , one has to prove the medical bills are reasonable , necessary , and were caused by the accident itself. Causation of the injuries is always the hotly contested issue . One of the problems of moving the case along is taking the medical evidence in cases. Doctors are exempt from subpoena and have to be set on their timeframe.
