Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice suits are responsible for the increases in medical costs in so many ways.  Preventive medicine as practiced by most physicians is increasing the cost of health care. Malpractice insurance is skyrocketing owing almost exclusively to inordinately high settlements. And a diminishing number of capable people are going into specialties where risk for lawsuits is high.  When doctors become targets, everyone suffers in health care delivery.
