What Is Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice is when a healthcare provider fails to meet the level of care a medical professional in the same specialty would provide in similar situations. To establish a valid medical malpractice claim, several elements must be proven.
- Standard of care: The healthcare professional had a duty to provide care that met established medical standards.
- Breach of standard: The provider failed to meet this standard of care, either by action or inaction.
- Causation: The breach of the standard of care directly caused or contributed to a patient's injury.
- Damages: The patient suffered actual harm, including physical injury, additional medical expenses, lost income, or other measurable losses.
Do you have questions about whether you can make a medical malpractice claim and what is involved? Contact our firm. We can carefully assess your situation and offer direction based on our extensive experience in this area of law. Georgia has specific procedural requirements for these types of claims, including a statute of limitations. Claimants must seek action within two years of the date of the injury’s discovery, so do not delay.
