A 2006 report in the New England Journal of Medicine said that 54% of the malpractice dollar went to Lawyers and administrative costs. At the same time, many would-be clients could not find a lawyer because the claim would not be high enough to warrant any lawyer to take the claim.
It is obviously a poor system and needs correction. Yet, despite the heated efforts of the Obama administration and left-leaning politicians to impose health care reform, nothing has been included in their plans to impose any reform to this malfunctioning medical tort system.
As evidenced by how the Swiss operate health care and medical malpractice, and noted here by me, it is possible for impartial judges to see that patients seeking redress are compensated when injured. And without fraud or hefty legal fees.
