The Rights of Ohio Medical Malpractice Victims
Sadly, more Americans die each year from medical mistakes than from motor vehicle accidents or breast cancer. An Institute of Medicine study estimated that medical errors accounted for as many as 98,000 deaths each year.
One of the best ways to help correct this crisis in medicine is to hold the negligent hospitals and physicians accountable for their mistakes.
In Ohio, a patient has the right to file a lawsuit against any physician or hospital, which may have committed malpractice. However, the filing requirements for a malpractice lawsuit are lengthy and complicated.
The laws governing malpractice suits may be the most complex of all Ohio personal injury laws.
Failure to meet the Ohio legal requirements for an Ohio medical malpractice claim means that the victim loses all rights to file a lawsuit against the medical professional or hospital which negligently caused severe injury -- or even death.
