[QUOTE="Troutrad, post: 1460849, member: 39329"] I WISH that was how it worked. Lawsuits rarely follow an actionable malpractice incident. I’ve been on our State board, having been on a panel where we suggest to attorneys whether a case is actionable or not. Board has 3 med professionals (including a hospital rep) and 3 attorneys. I’ve seen dozens of cases (and 2 of my own) and every case I saw there was a vote of 6-0 against the case proceeding. A few did anyway but none went to court. Yet I know a few docs (one in particular) who really deserved to have action taken against them. Those “hacks” are still in the business of providing sub-optimal medicine. Yet our hands our tied in reporting these cases because, you guessed it, threat of lawsuit. The legal system is broken and does not serve to rid ourselves of the few (hopefully) bad apples. A neurosurg friend/colleague who is brilliant, skilled, personable and widely known to be the best in his field has been sued more times than I care to count. Fortunately, he has never had to settle or go to court. His specialty is the most prone to be sued (pushing 20% chance of getting sued each year). Realize that’s anecdotal but it’s pervasive. I wish the system was set up to efficiently remove the chaff, but it doesn’t! And the only fix requires legislation, which is impossible because the most powerful lobby around....trial lawyers. All they have to do is pander to their buddies, the politicians who are made up mostly of lawyers. [/QUOTE]
