"The court has thoroughly reviewed the sworn testimony of plaintiffs' expert regarding the proposed set-aside amounts for future medical expenses relating to the
underlying accidents/incidents, which would otherwise be covered or reimbursable
by Medicare. The court finds that the proposed set-aside amount in each case
fairly takes Medicare's interests into account in that the figures are both reasonable and reliable. Therefore, the court is satisfied that Medicare's interests
have been adequately protected pursuant to the MSP. Plaintiffs shall set aside the
proposed sums in self-administered interest-bearing accounts to be used solely for
the purpose of satisfying future medical expenses related to the underlying accidents/incidents."
