Defensive Medicine Drives Wedge Between Patients/Physicians
Date:4/21/2010

current residents and fellows reported that they were taught to practice defensive medicine. This has implications for the next generation of physicians, the future cost of healthcare and patient access to the care they need.

According to Jackson, “Without radical medical malpractice reform that gets at the root problem, not only will costs continue to climb, but our survey suggests that access, quality and innovation will continue to be limited to certain patients. We need a balanced, common sense approach that guarantees patients their rights without undermining their care.”

A summary of the new survey findings can be found in Jackson Healthcare’s online media room at Market Research.
