The compensation standard of criminal cases is determined according to the legal provisions of different countries and regions. In some countries, such as China, economic compensation in criminal cases mainly includes loss compensation, medical expenses and alimony. The specific amount is calculated according to the loss of the victim and the legal provisions. Spiritual compensation is the compensation for the mental pain and suffering of the victim. In other countries, such as the United States, economic compensation in criminal cases may include medical expenses, funeral expenses, loss of income and so on. Spiritual compensation is the compensation for the psychological pain and fear of the victim. The standard of compensation in criminal cases is also limited by law. For example, in some countries, the law sets the maximum amount of compensation or limits certain types of losses.
Who is responsible for compensation in criminal cases? Compensation in criminal cases is generally borne by the criminal suspect or defendant. If the criminal suspect or defendant is unable to bear the liability for compensation, some countries may set up a special fund to pay the compensation, or the state will be responsible for the payment.

The Supreme People's Court's Interpretation of Several Issues Concerning the Application of Laws in the Trial of Personal Injury Compensation Cases Article 6 Medical expenses shall be determined according to receipts and vouchers such as medical expenses and hospitalization expenses issued by medical institutions, combined with medical records, diagnosis certificates and other relevant evidence. If the obligor for compensation disagrees with the necessity and rationality of the treatment, he shall bear the corresponding burden of proof. The amount of compensation for medical expenses shall be determined according to the amount actually incurred before the end of the debate in the court of first instance. The obligee can sue separately after deducting the necessary rehabilitation expenses, appropriate cosmetic expenses and other follow-up treatment expenses of organ function recovery training. However, according to the medical certificate or appraisal conclusion, the inevitable expenses can be compensated together with the medical expenses that have already occurred.
