BREAKING NEWS from the Louisiana Supreme Court

On December 9th 2022, The Supreme Court of Louisiana concluded in George v. Progressive Waste Sols. of La, Inc., 22-01068, 2022 WL 17546741 (La. 12/9/22) that the defendant cannot benefit from any reduction from a medical factoring agreement where the plaintiff is responsible for the full billed amount.  

The Supreme Court of Louisiana states that “[i]n the absence of any evidence that plaintiff is not liable for the full billed medical charges in this matter, defendant cannot benefit from any reduction as a result of the subject medical factoring agreement.”. The case was Reversed and Remanded.

This ruling further shows that medical factoring can be leveraged in a responsible and defensible manner in Louisiana for personal injury cases where your plaintiff may not be able to afford their needed medical care due to a lack of insurance or inadequate insurance coverage.
