And I can't take my mind off that "other" Argentinian woman story . . . in the early or mid 80s wasn't it? Just can't remember who it was, but it seems like it was alos a southern Republican. Wasn't Jesse Helms, was it? And I don't remember the woman's name, but it seems like she might have been worth a walk on the wild side. Dropping like flies, these Repubs. That's bad. A strong Repub party makes for a stronger Dem party, and the US benefits, and unfortunately the inverse is also true.

Everybody has some morality line that they hope to stay above. Most everybody fails at some point.

This has been painful rant of LWWJ's. Sorry for you hank attempting to reason with this.
For the rest of you, ask yourself who you trust and who looks out for your well being.....you doctor or your lawyer. You LWWJ's just stick with your lawyers. If you all do, we can have a big swing in the electorate next cycle.....a lot less of you around. Sad that the fringe of that side thinks every Doc is out to chop off their wrong leg or give them some untested med but their trial lawyer chasing down ambulances and placing ads on TV to sue sue sue has their backs(I mean they only ask for 50% of any claim, heres looking out for you). On the up side I now see where in the party their health care proposal comes from.

The koolaid is the individual doctor trotted out as being sued for some minor issue. Most suits are against hospitals, pharmaceuticals and/or medical device manufacturers. The real players and the real money behind stripping you of your right to sue. A surgeon removing the wrong limb or leaving a tool inside you is rare but usually due to a facility with system wide bad practices. A facility that has hidden it's incompetence for a long time.

I'll say it for the fourth time in this thread...if you have a problem with malpractice insurance being too high, then you have a problem with your malpractice insurance carrier, not a problem with your patient, or his lawyer.

Don't like your carrier's rates? Get a new one. It's called "the market" and "the market" makes the rates, not your patients, and not your legislators.

Fish on...

Todd

Insurance and lawyers have battled to a point of insinuating a feeling of entitlement by patients.

A doctor can pull off a miracle emergency triple bypass at 3am on a Tuesday and if the patient awakens with so much as a hangnail, lawyers are like sharks on chum.

The overall mental state that justifies such actions is just as much to blame as anything else in the equation.

Slipping on a bathroom floor used to mean you were not looking where you were going and paid the price, nowadays I wouldn't be surprised if the person yelled "Jackpot!" before "Ouch".

BS. You better have real deep pockets as no lawyer is going to throw good money after bad unless he's sure of a win or a settlement. Now a class action is where it's at for a lawyer. But a class action means it happened to a lot of patients which means no individual doctor was involved. See my last post.

If anyone here could recognize and pick out one of those it would be you. Lonely when you are to far away to catch for Todd.
