What Is Medical Malpractice?

Not every medical injury or death is due to malpractice. Sometimes doctors and medical staff do everything they should do, and the patient still has a bad outcome. As long as your care met the standard of care for health care providers, the medical provider would not be considered to have committed malpractice.

However, if your doctor failed to meet the standard of care, and you were injured as a result, you may be the victim of medical malpractice. The following are examples of malpractice:

  • Failure to order appropriate tests to diagnose injury or illness;
  • Failure to diagnose a serious illness such as cancer or heart attack, despite observable symptoms;
  • Surgical errors, such as damaging a healthy organ during an operation;
  • Failure to monitor a patient for infection or other complications;
  • Medication errors, such as prescribing or dispensing the wrong drug or the wrong dose of a drug;
  • Birth injuries caused by failure to monitor the fetus, delayed cesarean section or other negligence; and
  • Injuries caused by a nurse’s failure to properly and timely assist or monitor a patient.
