Medical Malpractice Caps act as a punishment to the most injured people damaged by medical errors and they fail to promote safe medical practices. Legislators concerned over malpractice litigation should shift their focus to the fact that hundreds of thousands of people are injured or killed annually due to medical errors in the United States.
The truth is that in states where caps were recently enacted, such as Florida, Mississippi, Nevada, Ohio, Oklahoma and Texas, insurers immediately requested rate hikes, not rate reductions. In other words, Caps Do Not Work.
We urge you to oppose any such legislative proposals
that limit victims rights.
