Why Patients Sue Physicians: Risk Management Strategies.
Physicians may head off allegations of negligence by developing a comprehensive understanding of why patients sue physicians and by appreciating what activities commonly lead to patient injury. With this knowledge, physicians can develop risk management strategies to reduce the likelihood of being named in a negligence lawsuit. We outline the common reasons why patients sue physicians, and what activities frequently lead to patient harm. The case examples emphasize the factors that can lead to allegations of negligence and patient harm.
