Here in Missouri we have seen caps set by the legislature enacted, then struck down by our State Supreme Court and then, just last month, reinstated by the legislature. It has been an emotionally charged debate affecting hospitals, doctors, insurance companies, lawyers and the victims of medical negligence. Economic Damages are your out of pocket expenses, regardless of whether you pay them directly or third party such as an health insurance company pays them. For example, if someone runs red light and T-bones your car and you end up in the hospital for week, your economic damages would include your hospital bill and your lost wages for that week.
