These legal costs are shared by both healthcare practitioners and the public they serve. Increased costs both reduce the number of available practitioners (thus the long waits) and the price of care.Yes, medicine is imperfect. That is why you have to prove malpractice and prove definitive injuries.
I don't think juries are as stupid as you think. Doctors do screw up, some doctors are inept.
If Obamacare passes without malpractice reform, this means we will have higher taxes (or deficits) and longer waits, as the formerly uninsured bombard the system with frivolous malpractice suits (no different from the homeless who run in front of traffic).
I thought healthcare reform was supposed to cut costs, not increase them.
Typical conservative red herring
"All malpractice suits are frivolous attempts to win millions of dollars"
Try suffering for the rest of your life and have someone tell you that you are being frivolous
I'm reading his post you responded to and I don't see that anywhere in it.
Wow, clairvoyance must be awesome!
