Atlanta Only 1 in 5 malpractice claims against doctors leads to a
settlement or other payout, according to the most comprehensive study of
these claims in two decades.
.
But while doctors and their insurers may be winning most of these
challenges, thats still a lot of fighting. Each year about 1 in 14 doctors
gets sued, and most physicians and virtually every surgeon will face at
least one malpractice lawsuit in their careers, the study found.
.
That represents a significant emotional cost for doctors, said study
co-author Amitabh Chandra, an economist and professor of public policy at
the Harvard Kennedy School of Government
.
"They hate having their name dragged through the local newspaper and
having to go to court," he said.
