Medical negligence, also known as medical malpractice, is one of the leading causes of death in America.
In a seminal study by the Institute of Medicine (IOM), researchers estimated that some 98,000 patients die from preventable medical mistakes every year.
In other words, doctors make careless, fatal errors nearly as often as people suffer heart attack, strokes, car accidents, and other leading causes of death. Moreover, a doctor’s negligence can actually cause a patient to suffer a heart attack, stroke, or debilitating crisis.
Doctors hold so much responsibility in their hands. Patients show up at their doorsteps will little to no expertise or insight into their ailments. They only know one thing: They need a doctor’s care.
The relationship between patient and care provider is one premised on responsibility and trust. When the doctor breaks that trust by acting irresponsibly or carelessly – even if it is entirely by accident – the doctor becomes legally accountable for the injuries and suffering that happen as a result. Hospitals, urgent care clinics, and other medical groups can be held liable too.
