Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Measure of Malpractice tells the story and presents the results of the Harvard Medical Practice Study, the largest and most comprehensive investigation ever undertaken of the performance of the medical malpractice system. The Harvard study was commissioned by the government of New York in 1986, in the midst of a malpractice crisis that had driven insurance premiums for surgeons and obstetricians in New York City to nearly $200,000 a year. The Harvard-based team of doctors, lawyers, economists, and statisticians set out to investigate what was actually happening to patients in hospitals and to doctors in courtrooms, launching a far more informed debate about the future of medical liability in the 1990s. Careful analysis of the medical records of 30,000 patients hospitalized in 1984 showed that approximately one in twenty-five patients suffered a disabling medical injury, one quarter of these as a result of the negligence of a doctor or other provider. After assembling all the malpractice claims filed in New York State since 1975, the authors found that just one in eight patients who had been victims of negligence actually filed a malpractice claim, and more than two-thirds of these claims were filed by the wrong patients. The study team then interviewed injured patients in the sample to discover the actual financial loss they had experienced: the key finding was that for roughly the same dollar amount now being spent on a tort system that compensates only a handful of victims, it would be possible to fund comprehensive disability insurance for all patients significantly disabled by a medical accident. The authors, who came to the project from very different perspectives about the present malpractice system, are now in agreement about the value of a new model of medical liability. Rather than merely tinker with the current system which fixes primary legal responsibility on individual doctors who can be proved medically negligent, legislatures should encourage health care organizations to take responsibility for the financial losses of all patients injured in their care.

Book Synopsis The Malpractice Epidemic by : Bernard Leo Remakus
Download or read book The Malpractice Epidemic written by Bernard Leo Remakus and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-04-17 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE MALPRACTICE EPIDEMIC is a behind-the-scenes look at medical malpractice and its numerous implications. Concise, informative and provocative, it is the original, definitive and undisputed LAYMAN'S GUIDE TO MEDICAL MALPRACTICE, as well as a valuable reference for even the most knowledgeable physician or lawyer.In addition to medical malpractice, THE MALPRACTICE EPIDEMIC also analyzes other problems with our current health care delivery system, including the health insurance industry, government-sponsored health care, and the organized movement to keep a single payer health insurance program out of the United States. Since 1990, THE MALPRACTICE EPIDEMIC has acquainted readers with such concepts as maloccurrence and defensive medicine in hardcover, paperback and e-book editions. Like its predecessors, this third print edition proposes a single plan to solve the ongoing malpractice crisis and make quality and affordable health care available to every American."Many of us, whether as patients or as caregivers, have seen errors and problems occur within the medical profession. Some people are quick to label these experiences as malpractice. Dr. Bernard Leo Remakus, author of The Malpractice Epidemic: A Layman's Guide to Medical Malpractice would like to help set the record straight. In his book, first published in 1990, Remakus attempts to define the term by cleverly using hypothetical cases to demonstrate what is and what is not malpractice. He analyses the role of the judicial system, legal profession and insurance industry in claims and offers suggestions as to what readers can do to end this “epidemic.” His continued use of “epidemic” is very purposeful. His goal is to get readers to see malpractice as a sickness in America. The book is very much for the layman. Remakus points out that the medical and legal communities use specialized vocabularies to discuss malpractice. This jargon confuses and excludes the average American from the conversation. So Remakus breaks down concepts and uses terms readers can understand. Since Dr. Remakus has been through years of education, training and spent years working with patients and families, he has seen what the malpractice “epidemic” can do to communities, the medical profession and individual doctors who are engulfed in malpractice claims/suits. At this point, readers should know that Dr. Remakus is very clear about concepts, terms and the purpose of his book (which appears to be to clarify what is and what is not malpractice). Dr. Remakus asks readers to consider National Health Insurance. Under such a program, physicians would be employed by the federal government. Judicial, legal and insurance groups would have limited involvement in malpractice claims. 'By adopting such a program, the United States would be setting the greatest standard in health care delivery ever known to mankind. At the same time, it would be putting an end to the most disgraceful mockery of justice this country has ever experienced.' Overall, Remakus does a great job of breaking down malpractice for the layman. He challenges readers to consider the strain today's health care system puts on our society and definitely puts ideas on the table that are appropriate to be thinking about, especially during this critical time when Americans begin to feel the impact of the Affordable Care Act." - PORTLAND BOOK REVIEW"The Malpractice Epidemic is a valuable primer in any serious discussion of the growing medical liability reform debate. A copy should be in every legislator's office." ROBERT V. DAVISON, ESQ., former senior advisor to the U.S. Secretary of HUD "The Malpractice Epidemic takes readers behind the scenes of medical malpractice and accurately portrays the interaction between doctors, lawyers, patients and courts. It should be required reading for every American because it shows how and why the system is broken, and what we need to do to fix it." HELEN M. EVRARD, M.D., medical sub-specialist

Download or read book Medical Malpractice written by Vasanthaku N. Bhat and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2001-09-30 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The healthcare delivery system in the United States is inundated with medical malpractice and liability issues, and there is no consensus about causes or solutions. Both physicians and an alliance of lawyers and consumer groups agree that there is a crisis, but physicians claim that the current medical malpractice system inheres in too many lawsuits while the lawyers argue that the current level of litigation is insufficient. Multivariate statistical methods are used in this much needed effort to investigate the effects of medical malpractice on various aspects of health care. After introducing the various tort reforms that have been proposed and implemented by some states, the author analyzes the impact of these reforms on medical malpractice payment rates, claim payments, malpractice insurance, and in dental malpractice. The impact of malpractice liability on costs, licensure, disciplinary action, the supply of physicians, and the practice of defensive medicine are also covered. This is an essential guide for students in law, medicine, and health administration, as well as anyone who wants to research these issues for public policy.

Download or read book Approaching Death written by Committee on Care at the End of Life and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1997-10-30 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the end of life makes its inevitable appearance, people should be able to expect reliable, humane, and effective caregiving. Yet too many dying people suffer unnecessarily. While an "overtreated" dying is feared, untreated pain or emotional abandonment are equally frightening. Approaching Death reflects a wide-ranging effort to understand what we know about care at the end of life, what we have yet to learn, and what we know but do not adequately apply. It seeks to build understanding of what constitutes good care for the dying and offers recommendations to decisionmakers that address specific barriers to achieving good care. This volume offers a profile of when, where, and how Americans die. It examines the dimensions of caring at the end of life: Determining diagnosis and prognosis and communicating these to patient and family. Establishing clinical and personal goals. Matching physical, psychological, spiritual, and practical care strategies to the patient's values and circumstances. Approaching Death considers the dying experience in hospitals, nursing homes, and other settings and the role of interdisciplinary teams and managed care. It offers perspectives on quality measurement and improvement, the role of practice guidelines, cost concerns, and legal issues such as assisted suicide. The book proposes how health professionals can become better prepared to care well for those who are dying and to understand that these are not patients for whom "nothing can be done."
