AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION WANTS TO TAKE AWAY PATIENT’S RIGHT TO SUE 150 150 Dan Frith

I bet the American Medical Association (AMA) is okay with allowing its members to sue house builders, suppliers, vendors, car dealerships, and lawyers but it is not okay with allowing those same people the constitutional right to sue them in court.

The American Medical Association this week adopted new principles for establishing health courts, or special courts with judges trained in medical standards that it says could lead to a fairer and more expedited resolution of medical liability claims. I read that statement to mean “fairer” only to the doctors…not the victims of medical negligence! Read about the AMA’s position.

Like we have said in this blog before…the corporate medical industry in the US is taking away your right to hold healthcare providers accountable for preventable injuries and death!
