Books such as this one are deceptively difficult to create. The
general subject is neither happy, nor easy, nor most anyone's idea
of fun. M- practice litigation, however, has become a central fact
of existence in the practice of medicine today. This tsunami of
lawsuits has led to a high volume of irreconcilable rhetoric and
ultimately threatens the stability of the entire health care
system. Our goal has been to provide a source of reliable
information on a subject of importance to all who provide me- cal
care in the United States. The book is divided into four sections.
Part I gives an overview of insurance in general and discusses the
organization of professional - ability insurance companies in
particular. Part II focuses on the litigation process itself with
views from the defense and plaintiff bar, and the physician as both
expert and defendant. Part III looks at malpractice litigation from
the viewpoint of the practicing physician. Some of the chapters are
broadly relevant to all doctors-the rise of e-medicine, and the
importance of effective communication, for example. The other ch-
ters are constructed around individual medical specialties, but
discuss issues that are of potential interest to all. Part IV looks
ahead. "The Case for Legal Reform" presents changes in
medical-legal jurisprudence that can be of immediate benefit. The
final two chapters take a broader perspective on aspects of our
entire health care system and its interface with law and public
policy.
