malpractice sucks. The doctor I work for had a little medicaid girl brought in very ill by her parents, he instructed them to drive her directly to the ER (five minutes from the office) and he made arrangements for her to be admitted. They never took her, instead took her home and she died and they sued the doctor.
Sounds all too familiar! Its ridiculous what people sue for..I am all for the suit when there is actual malpractice but most are nuisance suits!
