CIVIL/LAW: Provides relative to medical liens

HB 876 amends Louisiana law to clarify medical providers' rights to collect payment from injury settlement funds. It grants hospitals and healthcare providers a legal "lien" on the net settlement amount paid to injured people (or their representatives) from third parties (like at-fault drivers), prioritizing their claims over other creditors. The bill also requires providers to cover up to 20% of court litigation costs, as determined by a judge. This directly affects injured persons (who receive less after lien deductions), medical providers (who gain stronger collection rights), and attorneys (whose fees take precedence over provider claims).
