Malpractice Litigation
Malpractice litigation is often a lengthy and complex process. It is the responsibility of the patient or legally appointed representative to show that the doctor did not fulfill the duty of care owed them and that an injury resulted.
A variety of ideas have been proposed to change the legal rules governing malpractice claims. They propose to replace the trial and jury system with a new system that would reduce costs, speed settlements, reduce excessively generous juries, and eliminate unsubstantial medical claims.
Misdiagnosis
Misdiagnosis is one of the most frequent forms of medical negligence. It occurs countless times each year, with devastating consequences, such as unnecessary surgeries, long hospital stays, or even aggressive treatment. In some cases the wrong diagnosis can cause death.
In order to prove malpractice, a doctor must have breached his obligation to the patient by not diagnosing an injury or illness accurately. In the majority of instances, proving a doctor's failure to live up to the standard of care requires a specialized opinion, such as that of an expert medical professional who has a vast knowledge of the kind of illness that is involved in the instance. The expert has to prove that the doctor did not add the illness to their list of differential diagnoses by asking more questions, conducting more examinations, or ordering further tests to aid in the diagnosis process.
A plaintiff must also prove that the injuries resulting from the incorrect diagnosis were a direct result of the breach of duty. This usually means proving actual damages like past or future medical expenses, lost income in the form of pain and discomfort, shortened life span, and other losses. The victim must also file a lawsuit within the statute of limitations that are typically two or three years after the harm was caused.
