Malpractice Litigation
Malpractice litigation is often a lengthy and complex procedure. It is essential for the patient or legally appointed representative to show that the doctor violated the obligation of care owed to them and that an injury resulted.
Many proposals were put forward to change the lawful rules that govern medical malpractice claims. The trial and jury system was replaced with an alternative that would lower costs and speed up settlements, eliminate excessively generous juries, and screen out frivolous claims.
Incorrect diagnosis
The misdiagnosis of a patient is among the most prevalent forms of medical malpractice. It occurs millions of times every year, with devastating results, including unnecessary surgical procedures, prolonged hospitalizations, or invasive treatment. In some cases a mistake in diagnosis can result in death.
To establish malpractice, the doctor must have breached his duty to the patient by not diagnosing an illness or injury correctly. In most instances, proving a doctor's failure to live up to the standard of care requires a specialized opinion, such as that of a medical professional with a deep understanding of the kind of illness that is involved in the case. The expert must also show that the doctor did not add the illness to their list of differential diagnoses by asking more questions, making more observations or requesting additional tests as part of the diagnosis process.
A plaintiff must also prove that the injuries resulting from the misdiagnosis resulted directly from the breach of duty. This typically involves proving actual damages, such as past or future medical expenses, malpractice income lost, pain and discomfort, reduced life span and other damages. The victim must also file the suit within the time limit of the statute of limitations, which are usually two or three years after the harm was incurred.
