The process of bringing a lawsuit for malpractice is usually a long and complex process. It is required for the patient or an legally appointed representative to show that the doctor did not fulfill the duty of care owed them, and that an injury resulted.

A variety of ideas were proposed to change the lawful rules governing medical malpractice claims. The trial and jury system was replaced with an alternative which would reduce costs, speed up settlements, remove juries that are too generous and also screen out frivolous claims.

Misdiagnosis

The misdiagnosis of a patient is among the most common types of medical negligence. It occurs countless times every year, with devastating results, including unnecessary surgical procedures, prolonged hospital stays, or ad hoc treatment. An incorrect diagnosis could result in death in some cases involving severe injuries or illness.

To prove malpractice, it must be demonstrated that the doctor owed obligations to the patient and breached this duty by failing to diagnose the injury or illness correctly. In most instances, proving a doctor's inability to adhere to the standard of care requires an expert opinion, such as that of a medical professional with a deep understanding of the type of illness involved in the case. The expert must also demonstrate that the doctor did not add the illness to their list of differential diagnoses by asking more questions, observing more or requesting additional tests as part of the diagnosing process.

A plaintiff must also show that the injuries caused by an incorrect diagnosis result from the breach of duty. This typically means establishing actual damages, like past and future medical expenses and lost income, as well as pain and suffering, shortened life expectancy, and other damages. Additionally, the plaintiff must file the suit within the time limit of the statute of limitations, which is typically two or three years after the date of the injury.
