Medical Errors Insurance: Protecting Surgeons from Frivolous Lawsuits!

Here's an article explaining the need for a medical errors insurance designed by a board certified neurosurgeon to protect physicians from frivolous suits - before they occur.

Medicine used to be one of the most respected professions in America. People depended on their doctors for necessary care and trusted their expertise and judgment almost without question.

Unfortunately, the relentless TV campaigning by personal-injury lawyers has sullied the reputation of America's doctors to the point where people no longer afford them the same sort of trust.

How bad is it getting? Earlier this year, a law was proposed in Massachusetts that would require all surgeries to be videotaped. Needless to say, physicians are none too happy at the prospect of starring in their own reality TV show.

While the prospect of videotaping all surgeries is largely impractical, not to mention useless, the fact that it was even proposed reveals a disturbing shift in the public's attitude towards physicians.

Third parties such as lawyers and insurance companies have distorted the medical process to the point that physicians are no longer able to command the respect they deserve. This attitude shift is a huge contributor to the litigious environment in which physicians are forced to practice today.

With tort reform bills either failing to pass or facing court challenges across the country, the situation is only going to get worse. Lawyers will continue to persuade patients to "cash in" and frivolous lawsuits will continue to plague physicians. With lawmakers offering no better solutions than videotaping, physicians need to find proactive solutions on their own.

As one Illinois surgeon said, "... I am very thankful that I have the Medical Justice team on my side to help prevent the ostensible filing of what I believe to be an epidemic of disgracefully frivolous lawsuits."
