Oklahoma HB2612 amends civil procedure to change the admissibility of medical bills in personal injury cases.

Oklahoma HB2612 modifies the Oklahoma Evidence Code to specify that in civil actions arising from personal injury, the actual amounts paid for medical services are admissible at trial, not the amounts billed. This applies to cases filed on or after November 1, 2015. The bill also addresses the admissibility of evidence for necessary future treatment of the injured party, allowing for Medicare reimbursement rates if certain conditions are met.
