Evidence - As introduced, increases from $4,000 to $10,000 the amount of medical, hospital, or doctor bills that may be attached as an exhibit in a civil complaint or civil warrant as prima facie evidence that the bills so paid or incurred were necessary or reasonable. - Amends TCA Title 16 and Title 24.

SB 571 increases the threshold for medical bills to be automatically accepted as valid proof in Tennessee civil court cases, raising the amount from $4,000 to $10,000. This directly affects medical providers (hospitals, doctors) and patients who submit bills as evidence in lawsuits about necessary care. The bill changes the law so that bills under $10,000 can be attached to court filings without further proof they were reasonable or necessary. It streamlines the evidence process for smaller medical expenses in civil claims. The bill amends Tennessee Code Sections 24-5-113(a)(3) and 16-5-113(a)(3).
