What is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice is an error in diagnosis, treatment, or aftercare of a patient that results in harm, injury, or death. A lawsuit can be filed against a hospital, doctor, or other individual healthcare practitioner. While practitioners are not responsible for all the suffering a patient experiences under their care, they are liable if they did not follow the standard of care used in similar situations.

Examples of Medical Malpractice

  • Failure to diagnose or misdiagnosis
  • Improper medication or dosage
  • Misreading or ignoring laboratory results
  • Unnecessary surgery
  • Surgical errors
  • Anesthesia errors
  • Poor follow-up or aftercare
  • Premature discharge
  • Disregarding or not taking appropriate patient history
  • Failure to treat
