FINE, J.
¶ 291. (concurring in part; dissenting in part). I join in the Majority opinion except paragraphs 262-278.
¶ 292. The trial court did not use the amount actually paid by Milwaukee County in determining "reasonableness"; it used it as the measure of recovery even though the parties agreed that the higher, billed, figure was "reasonable»" I also disagree with the Majority's decision to apply Wis. Stat. § 893.55(7) to Beauchaine even though she is not under Wis. Stat. ch. 655. Accordingly, I would reverse that part of the judgment that reduced the Hegartys' medical-expense recovery.
