Most people tend to think of medical malpractice as something a doctor does to people. In reality, medical malpractice applies to all health care providers.<\/p>\n
Medical malpractice may mean a less than stellar performance of their job, right up to failure to act in a timely manner. The truth of the matter is that there are literally hundreds of injuries that may happen during a medical procedure \u2013 some that result in serious injuries, and some that result in death.<\/p>\n
If you’ve spent any time reading about the health care system, then you have a pretty good idea that it isn’t in the best shape financially. It is over burdened, overused and overwhelmed. All these factors have contributed to a medical malpractice epidemic over time. Think about it. Virtually every time you go for coffee at the local eatery, there is always one story or another about doctoring gone wrong.<\/p>\n
