Abstract

The second paper in this series looks at how damages are awarded in medical negligence cases and suggests reasons why they have increased over recent years. It then goes on to assess whether the UK is facing, or is about to face, an American‐style ‘malpractice crisis’. It is well known that the numbers of claims and the size of the awards of damages in the USA have led to doctors either paying astronomical sums in insurance premiums or failing to insure at all, rather risking bankruptcy in the event of litigation. The conclusion is, from the available evidence cited, that such a crisis has not occurred in Great Britain and will not occur, at least in the foreseeable future. Part 3 of the series follows on p. 282.

医疗过失2
本系列的第二篇论文着眼于在医疗过失案件中如何判定损害赔偿,并提出近年来损害赔偿增加的原因。报告接着评估了英国是否正面临或即将面临美国式的“医疗事故危机”。众所周知,在美国,索赔的数量和损害赔偿的规模导致医生要么支付天文数字的保险费,要么根本不投保,而不是冒着诉讼破产的风险。根据所引用的现有证据,结论是,这样的危机在英国没有发生,也不会发生,至少在可预见的未来不会发生。本系列的第3部分在第282页。
