SB363 revises Nevada's civil action laws, modifying comparative negligence rules, limiting medical expense damages, and altering employer liability.

SB363 amends Nevada's civil action laws by removing the requirement to assert comparative negligence as a defense. It also limits the amount of medical expenses recoverable as damages to the amount compensated by health insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid. The bill changes employer liability, making only the person causing the injury liable, and removes employer liability for employee actions. It modifies vocational rehabilitation services, allowing injured employees to receive services in bordering states if more cost-effective.
