Medical Malpractice Cases

The healthcare industry and its practitioners are not infallible. Although never intentional, mistakes are made and negligence does occur. A simple misdiagnosis or the incorrect dispensing of the wrong medication can be as devastating as a blatant surgical error. Each year many Americans die as a result of medical errors. According to an Institute of Medicine report, between 44,000 and 98,000 Americans die in hospitals each year due to medical errors and the annual cost to society for such errors ranges from $17 to $29 billion. These figures only take into account hospital deaths. Medical errors can and do occur in every setting where health care is administered: in doctors’ offices, hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, and patients’ homes. Further, according to the Institute of Medicine, more people die from medical mistakes each year than from highway accidents, breast cancer, or AIDS. The experienced attorneys at The Russo Firm objectively and diligently strives to identify whether or not the patient’s injuries or death were a direct result of negligence on the part of physician, nurse, pharmacist or other hospital based personnel.

For example, in Florida, a victim of medical malpractice, their surviving heirs or guardians have two (2) years from the date of discovery of the malpractice. Often times, there may be a difficulty in finding when the actual discovery date should have been, that is why it is vital that you contact an experienced medical malpractice attorney to assist you in determining this very crucial time frame.
