What is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice is not always straightforward. Multiple factors may influence how malpractice occurs, but patients rely on medical professionals to provide the best care possible. If your healthcare provider has failed to meet the duty of care, they may be liable to pay for your resulting injuries. These errors often stem from miscommunication, inadequate staffing, and failure to adhere to established protocols. The consequences of medical malpractice can be severe, leading to prolonged illness, unnecessary suffering, or even death, underscoring the critical need for rigorous standards and continuous improvement in healthcare practices.

How Does Medical Malpractice Occur?

Medical malpractice can occur when a health care professional neglects to provide appropriate treatment, take appropriate action, or gives substandard treatment that causes harm, injury, or death to a patient. Factors such as miscommunication, fatigue, or being under the influence of drugs/alcohol can all lead a health care professional to act negligently. When proving negligence in medical malpractice the suspicious act or omission that has led to an injury will be examined to decide whether another doctor in the same circumstances would have conducted themselves in the same way to provide the best standard of care to a patient. If there is enough evidence showing negligent behavior of a doctor or health care provider, the patient may be eligible to bring a medical malpractice case.

Our compassionate team of medical malpractice attorneys will take the time to personally address your questions and concerns. Our team can represent you in malpractice cases including:

How to Prove A Medical Malpractice Case

When you trust a medical professional with your health, you expect competent and responsible care. Unfortunately, medical errors can happen, leading to serious injuries, complications, or even loss of life. If a healthcare provider’s negligence has caused you harm, you may have a medical malpractice claim. To successfully prove and file a medical malpractice lawsuit, you must establish four key elements: 

  • Duty of Care – The healthcare provider had a legal obligation to provide competent medical treatment. This relationship is usually clear when a doctor agrees to treat a patient.
  • Breach of Duty – The provider failed to meet the accepted standard of care. This could be through an incorrect diagnosis, improper treatment, or neglecting necessary medical procedures.
  • Causation – You must prove that the provider’s negligence directly caused your injury or worsened your condition. This often requires medical expert testimony.
  • Damages – The malpractice must have resulted in actual harm, such as medical expenses, lost income, physical pain, emotional suffering, or disability. 

If you believe you have been a victim of medical malpractice, it is essential to act quickly. Consulting an experienced medical malpractice attorney from our firm can help you understand your rights, gather necessary evidence, and pursue the compensation you deserve.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have a medical malpractice case?

Determining if you have a medical malpractice case can be challenging. Generally, you need to establish that a doctor-patient relationship existed, the medical provider was negligent, this negligence caused an injury, and the injury led to specific damages. Consulting with a medical malpractice attorney from McCune Law Group is crucial as we can evaluate your situation, review medical records, and consult with medical experts to determine if you have a viable case

Compensation in medical malpractice cases can cover various types of damages. These include economic damages, such as medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and lost wages; non-economic damages, like pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life; and, in some cases, punitive damages intended to punish particularly egregious behavior. 

Medical malpractice occurs when a medical provider provides treatment that falls below the accepted standard of care in the medical community, resulting in injury or harm to the patient. This can include errors in diagnosis, treatment, aftercare, or health management. To have a valid claim, it must be proven that the healthcare provider’s negligence in medical care directly caused the patient’s injury. 

Informed consent is a legal and ethical obligation for healthcare providers to explain the risks, benefits, and alternatives of a proposed treatment or procedure to a patient. The patient must then voluntarily agree to the treatment with a full understanding of the potential outcomes. If a healthcare provider fails to obtain informed consent and the patient suffers harm as a result, this could be grounds for a medical malpractice claim. 

Medical malpractice and medical negligence are often used interchangeably, but they have distinct meanings. Medical negligence refers to a healthcare provider’s failure to provide the standard of care that a reasonably competent professional would have provided under similar circumstances. It is a key element of medical malpractice, which is a broader legal concept. Medical malpractice involves not only proving negligence but also showing that this negligence caused harm or injury to the patient and resulted in specific damages.

The “standard of care” in medical malpractice cases refers to the level of care and competence that a reasonably skilled healthcare professional, with similar training and experience, would provide under similar circumstances. It is a benchmark used to evaluate whether the healthcare provider’s actions were appropriate and met professional standards. If a provider’s care falls below this standard and causes harm to the patient, it can be considered negligence.
