Identifying Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice cases are complex for a number of reasons, notably the issue or proving that malpractice even occurred. The law does not allow you to sue a doctor or hospital on the basis of a poor outcome. Instead, you must prove that the medical professional or entity failed to provide an acceptable level of care, one that you could reasonably have expected to receive from another qualified medical professional or facility. Proving this often requires expert testimony from medical professionals who can attest as to the standard of care and whether or not it was breached.
Some examples of this might include:
- A doctor who ignores a patient’s self-reported symptoms or dismisses these symptoms
- A hospital employee who fails to carry out diagnostic tests ordered by a doctor
- A laboratory mishandles a patient’s test, resulting in contamination and inaccurate results
- A pharmacist misreads a doctor’s prescription and provides a patient with the wrong medication
In order to prevail, your attorney must show that the conduct of the treating doctor, hospital, or medical clinic fell below the generally accepted medical standard of care. There must be a departure by the treating doctor, hospital, or medical clinic from the accepted custom or practice that consequently caused you harm.
You must also prove that you sustained damages as a result of the negligence or misconduct. Damages could include costs associated with additional medical treatment (including revision surgery), lost income or wages from time taken off work to receive treatment and/or heal, lost future earnings if your injuries or condition is disabling, and pain and suffering, among others.
