Malpractice Litigation

Malpractice litigation is often a long and complex process. It requires the patient or a legally designated representative, to show that the physician owed them a duty of care, that the physician violated the duty and harm resulted.

Many proposals were put forward to change the lawful guidelines governing medical malpractice. The trial and jury system was replaced with an alternative that would lower costs and speed up settlements. It would also eliminate excessively generous juries, and screen out frivolous claims.

Incorrect diagnosis

Medical malpractice is often caused by incorrect diagnosis. It occurs countless times every year, with devastating consequences, including unnecessary surgery, prolonged hospitalizations, or invasive treatment. In some cases, a misdiagnosis may even cause death.

To prove that there was a malpractice, the doctor must have breached his duty to the patient by failing to diagnose an injury or illness in a timely manner. In most cases, the inability of the doctor to perform the required care is proven through an expert opinion. This can be an expert medical professional who has extensive knowledge of the type of disease in question. The expert must also prove that the physician did not sufficiently add the illness to his or her list of differential diagnoses using methods such as asking additional questions, making further observations or requesting further tests in the diagnostic procedure.

A plaintiff must also demonstrate that the injuries caused by an incorrect diagnosis result of the breach of duty. This usually involves proving actual damages such as past or future medical expenses, income lost in the form of pain and discomfort, diminished life span, and other losses. Finally, the victim must file the lawsuit within the time limit of the statute of limitations, which is typically two or three years after the date of the injury.
