Malpractice Litigation
Malpractice litigation can be a lengthy and complicated process. It requires the patient, or a legally authorized representative, to prove that the doctor was obligated to them under a duty of care, and that the physician did not fulfill that duty and the injury resulted.
Various proposals have been made to alter the legal rules that govern malpractice claims. The idea is to replace the jury system and trial with a new system that would reduce costs, speed settlements, eliminate excessively generous juries and screen out fraudulent medical claims.
The wrong diagnosis
Medical malpractice is usually caused by mistaken diagnosis. It occurs in a multitude of instances every year, with devastating consequences, including unnecessary surgery, lengthy hospital stays, or even aggressive treatment. A misdiagnosis can even cause death, as in some cases that involve severe injury or illness.
To prove malpractice, it must be demonstrated that the doctor owed obligations to the patient and breached the obligation by failing to recognize the illness or injury properly. In the majority of cases, proving the doctor's inability to adhere to the standards of care requires a specialized opinion, such as from an expert in medical practice with a deep understanding of the type of illness involved in the case. The expert must also prove that the doctor did not add the illness to their differential diagnosis list by asking further questions, observing more or ordering additional tests in the diagnosis procedure.
A plaintiff must also demonstrate that the injuries caused by the mistake were a direct result of the breach of duty. This usually involves establishing actual damages, including past and future medical expenses and lost income, as well as pain and suffering, shortened life expectancy, and other losses. The victim must also file a lawsuit within the limitations period which typically are two or three years after the injury was caused.
