Do You Have a Medical Malpractice Case?

Medical Malpractice

You hear the term medical malpractice quite often in the news. It’s a broad term that refers to negligence by medical professionals that leads to harm, injury, or death. However, medical negligence and medical malpractice are different, though related. For example, if your doctor prescribed you the wrong medication or dosage, that doctor might be guilty of medical negligence. But does that mean you would have a medical malpractice case?

Not exactly.

Remember, medical malpractice refers to negligence that resulted in injury. Although he prescribed the wrong drug, the effects might have been completely harmless or you may have caught the mistake and never taken the medication. You would only have a medical malpractice case if his negligent treatment resulted in harm, injury, or death.
