Medical Malpractice

There has been a great outcry in the medical community about the high cost to society of medical malpractice litigation. Medical malpractice litigation drives up insurance premiums for doctors according to claims made by those in the healthcare business.

However, medical malpractice litigation actually has a positive impact on healthcare in the United States:

Medical malpractice claims can signal to hospitals, medical facilities and healthcare providers that procedures need to be reviewed or strengthened.
Claims do have a deterrent effect – they will deter specific doctors from making mistake after mistake plus it will deter other medical providers from doing the same. In other words, the future outlook of liability can bring into existence an atmosphere in which doctors adds to the level of care they give to avoid mistakes. Although some will justify how this leads to the practice of defensive medicine, it is a fact that doctors should consistently act in a way as to prevent mistakes – not just to avoid liability for one.

An important part of our country’s system checks and balances is the right to sue a negligent party for damages a victim suffered, the law is in place to protect people from being wrongfully harmed.
