Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) is a category comprising various techniques which enable the parties to resolve their conflicts out of the highly formalized judicial proceedings. In many legal systems, ADR is an increasingly popular set of legal instruments to resolve disputes because of its cost-effectiveness and time-effectiveness, flexibility, confidentiality and respect for unique aspects of a particular case. While it is traditionally associated primarily with commercial arbitration on one hand and consumer disputes on the other hand, ADR has been introduced also to the area of medical malpractice disputes. With the growing numbers of these disputes as well as rising amounts of compensation in many Western countries, the use of ADR in health care context is only logical and its further increase can be expected. Many studies show not only that ADR methods such as early apology, mediation or arbitration are very rational from an economic perspective for the health care providers, but also that these techniques improve the patients', or their relatives', satisfaction. However, very serious questions may arise about the suitability and even legality of the use of ADR in medical malpractice cases given mainly its possible interference with the human right to access to justice. The paper first introduces the ADR, its particular techniques and their use in medical malpractice disputes. Benefits and disadvantages of ADR in medical malpractice disputes are then analysed with a special emphasis on its possible conflict with the human, and constitutionally protected, right to access to justice. The paper eventually assesses the conditions of suitability of ADR in the specific context of medical malpractice disputes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One frequently overlooked side-effect of the current medical malpractice crisis in the U.S. is the fact that it encourages doctors to practice defensive medicine. Under the current system, doctors face incentives to order more diagnostic tests, over-prescribe pharmaceuticals, schedule unnecessary follow-up visits, and prolong patient stays in order to limit their exposure to malpractice liability. All of these clearly have detrimental effect on health care quality in addition to driving up costs. This paper examines the phenomenon of defensive medical practice, its causes, potential benefits, and problematic effects on both the cost and quality of health care in America. An exhaustive literature supplemented by interviews with doctors and lawyers reveals that the primary causes of defensive medicine are psychological rather than financial. Doctors fear enduring a long, protracted trial far more than they fear its financial consequences, in part because malpractice insurance protects them from monetary penalties. Interestingly, existing reforms have typically focused on limiting the financial liability of physicians who are sued for malpractice. Instead, states should consider exploring such alternatives as alternative dispute resolution, enterprise liability, selective no-fault liability, and the use of clinical practice guidelines.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A perusal of statutes enacted and promulgated in the Philippines as compared with other countries shows that they lack a separate law to protect the welfare of patients who are victims of malpractices committed by physicians. A patient who has been a victim of medical malpractice will have to seek the remedies provided under the old Civil Code and the Penal Code for legal redress of his grievance. The Philippine Medical Act of 1959 or R.A. 2382 as amended by R.A. 4224 in 1965, and further amended by R.A. 5946 in 1969 only professionalizes the practice of medicine but lacks penal imposition for incompetent physicians. Since there is an increasing number of cases involving medical malpractice tht endangers lives, a law is needed to protect people's welfare. This study analyzed variouse doctrines and laws applied by the Supreme Court in adjudicating medical malpractice cases involving a physician and patients. The study revealed that an aggrieved party usually seeking retribution through ordinary court litigation would eventually prove it to be time-consuming. As such, this discourages a party to pursue his action as evidenced by lesser cases filed. It was discovered that in foreign countries, there are alternative modes applied in resolving medical malpractice cases, such as "Alternative Dispute Resolution in Medical Malpractice Claims" that may promote reforms if applied in our legal system. As an outcome, a legislative framework was formulated as foundation for the enactment of a medical malpractice law necessary to provide ample protection among patients who are victims of medical malpractice and preserve the integrity of the medical profession.

Download or read book Trial and Error written by Lydia Nussbaum and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. healthcare system has a problem: hundreds of thousands of people die each year, and over a million are injured, by medical mistakes that could have been avoided. Furthermore, over ninety percent of these patients and their families never learn of the errors or receive redress. This problem persists, despite myriad reforms to the medical malpractice system, because of lawmakers' dominant focus on reducing providers' liability insurance costs. Reform objectives are beginning to change, however, and the vehicle for implementing these changes is alternative dispute resolution (“ADR”). Historically, legislatures deployed ADR to curb malpractice litigation and restrict patients' access to courts. Today, a new law in Oregon combines early disclosure and ADR to help injured patients get answers and compensation, and to improve medical safety. This Article examines Oregon's innovative ADR program and argues that, in contrast to earlier ADR reforms, the program constructs an entirely new alternative to the conventional tort system. This alternative shows promise and may succeed where other ADR reforms have failed; nevertheless, additional protections are critical to ensure fairness for patients, providers, and the public.

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.
