Medical malpractice is every patients’ worst nightmare. We are taught from an early age to put our faith in the medical system and the professionals the system produces. What you don’t expect at your most vulnerable – such as being ill or injured – is negligence on behalf of a medical staff that doesn’t have your best interest at heart.
Medical malpractice is established when two criteria are met:
- A health care provider must have violated a professional standard of care
- An injury must have occurred as a result of this violation
Unsurprisingly, medical malpractice is the third leading cause of death in the United States. It is estimated that 260,000 people die from medical negligence every year, with 10% of all deaths in the United States resulting from some form of medical error. A victim in a medical malpractice case could end up spending more than $500,000 in litigation fees and out-of-pocket expenses based on the severity of the injuries suffered.
Some common forms of medical malpractice are as follows:
- Surgical error
- Misdiagnosis
- Over-prescribed medications
- Wrongful prescription evaluations
- Premature discharge
- Poor aftercare
- And more
