The only opponents are the personal injury lawyers. Anyone who reads the definition of malpractice should know the standard of proof is very restrictive. That’s because bad outcomes don’t equate to malpractice. Gross neglect or wilful and want disregard for life are about all that’s “malpractice”. What if a doctor makes an honest mistake? That’s not malpractice and shouldn’t be treated as such. Doctors do the best they can but nobody is perfect. The reason so many good doctors are changing careers is becasue money grubbing people sue they everytime something isn’t perfect. That’s our society. And we can thank the personal injury attorneys for cultivating that mentality.
