SCHOOL BOARD OF SUMTER COUNTY, Appellant, v. Donald BROWN and Melanie Brown, Appellee.
    No. 5D09-1141.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
    Feb. 18, 2011.
    
      Michael H. Bowling, of Bells, Roper <& Kohlmyer, P. A., Orlando, for Appellant.
    Joseph H. Shaughnessy, of Morgan & Morgan, P. A., Orlando, for Appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

In this personal injury action we conclude, as did the trial judge, that the contractual discounts associated with the plaintiff/appellee’s medical bills fall within the statutory definition of “collateral sources,” and affirm. See Goble v. Frohman, 901 So.2d 830 (Fla.2005); cf. Thyssenkrupp Elevator Corp. v. Lasky, 868 So.2d 547 (Fla. 4th DCA 2008), review dismissed, 873 So.2d 1225 (Fla.2004).

AFFIRMED.

MONACO, C.J., EVANDER and JACOBUS, JJ., concur.
