6 The Joint Commission Federal/State Legislation Medical Boards National Practitioner Data Bank Apology statutes Lack of disclosure and communication is the most prominent complaint of patients, and their families, who together have become victims of medical error or negligence. Years of expensive and wounding litigation often ensue when families are sometimes only seeking answers. Healthcare at a Crossroads: Strategies for Improving the Medical Liability System and Preventing Patient Injury The Joint Commission (white paper)
7 There is in fact a fundamental dissonance between the medical liability system and the patient safety movement. The latter depends on the transparency of information on which to base improvement; the former drives such information underground. Healthcare at a Crossroads: Strategies for Improving the Medical Liability System and Preventing Patient Injury The Joint Commission (white paper)
8 The goal of any such restructuring should be to reduce litigation by decreasing patient injury, by encouraging open communication and disclosure among patients and providers, and by assuring prompt and fair compensation when safety systems fail.
