Abstract: Through their work developing and implementing life care plans, life care planners have routine exposure to costs associated with the ongoing care of individuals with disabilities. This work encompasses a wide range of services, including but not limited to routine medical care, diagnostic tests, therapeutic modalities, medical procedures and surgical interventions, medications, transportation, household services, case management and vocational services. When combined, published professional standards of practice, peerreviewed generally accepted methodology, and recurring exposure to actual costs for services, provide a foundation for opinion and testimony regarding the reasonableness of past medical charges and future costs.
