117. again, why should my expenses be paid twice?

if my insurance pays my medical bills, and i sue for pain and suffering and FUTURE medical bills, that's a DIFFERENT QUESTION.

but if my insurance pays my medical bills, and then a defendant ALSO pays my medical bills, why on earth should i get paid twice for the exact same expense?

i could say that, in theory, one could sue for pain and suffering, future medical bills, and economic loss and choose NOT to also sue for medical expenses. however, that simply never happens, because it's virtually impossible to prove the other things without also introducing the actual medical bills.
