Physicians offer life and hope to millions of Americans each
year. Unfortunately, many patients suffer injury or death due
to medical mistakes, ignorance, negligence and inexperience.
It has been reported that an estimated 98,000 patients die
each year as a result of medical error in hospitals alone and
this estimate does not include mistakes made in other
healthcare settings such as physicians' offices, emergency
care centers nursing homes and other healthcare environments.
Our nation spends an estimated $17 billion per year on costs
associated with preventable medical errors.
A physician is determined to be negligent when they fail to
use the same degree of skill and learning, under the same or
similar circumstances, that are used by other members of their
profession. Leading types of malpractice suits include:
- Wrongful death
- Hospital, physician and nursing negligence
- Birth defects or injuries
- Misdiagnosis
- Pharmaceutical errors
- Nursing home and elder abuse injuries
Proof of negligence is required to win damages in medical
malpractice cases. Damages may be economic (lost wages,
medical expenses), non-economic (pain and suffering) or
punitive (punishment for reckless or malicious behavior).
Damages may also include compensation for future monies such
as medical care and loss of earnings.
