Malpractice Litigation
Malpractice litigation can be a long complex process. It is essential for the patient or legally appointed representative to prove that the doctor violated the duty of care owed to them, and that an injury resulted.
Many proposals have been put forward to alter the legal rules that govern malpractice claims and replace the jury and trial system with a new system that would reduce costs, speed settlements, eliminate excessively generous juries and screen out unnecessary medical claims.
The wrong diagnosis
Misdiagnosis is among the most common types of medical malpractice. It occurs millions of times every year, with devastating results, including unnecessary surgeries, long hospital stays, or even aggressive treatment. A mistake in diagnosis can result in death in some cases involving severe illness or injury.
To prove that there was a malpractice, the doctor must have breached his duty to the patient by failing to diagnose an illness or injury correctly. In most instances, proving the doctor's failure to live up to the standard of care requires a specialized opinion, such as that of a medical professional with extensive knowledge about the type of illness at play in the instance. The expert must also show that the physician failed to properly include the disease in his or her list of differential diagnoses using methods like asking further questions, observing further, or ordering more tests to aid in the diagnostic process.
A plaintiff must also demonstrate that the injuries resulting from an error in diagnosis are a direct result from the breach of duty. This typically means proving the actual damages, such as past or future medical expenses, lost income as well as pain and discomfort, diminished life span and other damages. The victim must also file the suit within the statutes of limitations that are typically two or three years after the damage occurred.
