How the fear of malpractice affects mothers and reproductive
choices Giving birth is a monumental event, not only in the
personal life of the woman giving birth, but as a medical process
and procedure. In The Business of Birth, Louise Marie Roth explores
the process of giving birth, and the ways in which medicine and law
interact to shape maternity care. Focusing on the United States,
Roth explores how the law creates an environment where medical
providers, malpractice attorneys, and others limit women's rights
and choices during birth. She shows how a fear of liability risk
often drives the decision-making process of medical providers, who
prioritize hospital efficiency over patient safety, to the
detriment of mothers themselves. Ultimately, Roth advocates for an
approach that protects the reproductive rights of mothers. A
comprehensive overview, The Business of Birth provides valuable
insight into the impact of the law on mothers, medical providers,
maternity care practices, and others in the United States.
