§ 26-33-104 — Advance payments

Any advance payment a defendant physician or his insurer makes
to or for the plaintiff, or any other person, is not an
admission of liability for injuries or damages the plaintiff or
anyone else suffers as to a claim for malpractice. Evidence of
an advance payment is not admissible in a court proceeding
concerning malpractice until there is final determination in the
plaintiff's favor, in which case the final amount payable shall
be reduced by any advance payments.
