Reply #2: As a doc who always tries to do my best I think.... [View All]

people need to understand that most doctors are really
trying to do their best.

Some malpractice cases are warranted, conversely others are not.

Unwarranted cases, whether Lottery Handouts are awarded or not,
hurt society in many ways.

1.) The cost of the cases gets passed on through malpractice
premiums to the doctors and then on to the patients.
2.) 60 to 80 billion dollars of unneeded tests and c-sxns are
done just so doctors can "cover their asses".
3.) The climate of fear has driven a wedge between doctors and
patients.

I don't know what the solution is but malpractice is part of the
health care crisis whether you believe it or not.
