Hot Topics in Claims: A Case Study
Summary:
“A look at the issues with medical care and patient communication exposing insureds to liability claims resulting in large payouts by dissecting the largest jury verdict ever rendered in Maine in a medical professional liability case last fall.”
Takeaways:
- Sometimes, liability exposure is not about the medicine alone.
- Do what you say and say (to the patient) what you mean.
- Don’t make it easy for a plaintiff’s lawyer; cover the basics.
- No liability pass for doing a favor for another provider or a patient.
