Maryland SB269 establishes a rebuttable presumption that medical bills are authentic, fair, and reasonable in personal injury or wrongful death cases.

Maryland SB269 amends the state's judicial proceedings law to establish a rebuttable presumption that medical bills are authentic, fair, and reasonable in personal injury or wrongful death cases. This presumption means that expert testimony is not required to prove the authenticity, fairness, or reasonableness of a medical bill. However, a party may overcome this presumption by proving, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the medical bill or any charge in the bill is not authentic, is unfair, or is unreasonable.
