Plaintiff was never liable or subject to pay the entire amount of $713.67.1 Rather, plaintiff was only billed for and was only legally liable to pay the reduced amount of $485.29, the specific amount sought by Baton Rouge General.2 Because Travelers’ paid the expenses “in*113curred” by Ms. 12Hoffman in accordance with the terms of its medical payments provision,31 would grant Travelers’ motion for summary judgment and dismiss plaintiffs action. Accordingly, I respectfully dissent.
