Malpractice Litigation
Malpractice litigation can be a long, complicated process. It requires the patient or a legally designated representative, to show that the physician had a duty to care, that the doctor violated the duty and the injury resulted.
Various proposals have been made to change legal rules governing malpractice claims. The idea is to replace the jury system and trial with a new system that would reduce costs, speed settlements, reduce excessively generous juries and filter out fraudulent medical claims.
Incorrect diagnosis
Medical malpractice is usually caused by mistaken diagnosis. It happens millions of times every year and can result in devastating consequences, including the need for unnecessary surgery or long hospital stays or unnecessarily invasive treatment. A misdiagnosis could lead to death, as in some cases that involve severe injuries or illness.
In order to prove malpractice, a doctor must have breached his duty to the patient by failing to diagnose an injury or illness correctly. Most of the time, the inability of the doctor to perform the required care is proven by an expert's opinion. This can be an expert in medicine who has extensive knowledge of the type of illness that is being investigated. The expert has to prove that the doctor did not add the disease to their differential diagnosis list by asking additional questions, observing more or requesting further tests in the diagnosis procedure.
A plaintiff must also demonstrate that the injuries resulting from a misdiagnosis are a direct result from the breach of duty. This usually means establishing actual damages, like future and past medical expenses and lost income, as well as suffering and pain, shortened life expectancy and other damages. The plaintiff must also file the suit within the time limit of the statute of limitations which usually are two or three years after the damage occurred.
